description This study tested the proposition that national similarity between counselor and client results in improved counseling outcome. Using a repeated-measures, quasi-experimental design, eight female counselors (four Turkish, four American) saw 16 volunteer, expatriate female American clients for single, individual counseling sessions. Results indicated no differences on (a) clients' and counselors' ratings of working alliance and of progress on goals, or (b) clients' ratings of utilization intent as a function of counselor nationality. Irrespective of nationality, clients' ratings of working alliance were higher than their counselors. These results echo a trend suggesting that clients' preferences for cultural/ethnic similarity dissipate as the research methodology approximates actual counseling sessions. Additionally, local mental health service providers may be a viable resource for expatriate Americans.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
