Navigating Identity in a Multicultural Community

People who live in two different cultures experience changes in their self-identity through their decision-making process and their interactions with other people. The immigration rate in Canada reaches almost 25 percent because most people there either immigrated or have immigrant parents. Through their identity journey, people discover their public, and private value systems, which enable them to develop better self-confidence and emotional understanding through culturally-sensitive therapy Thornhill.
