The counsellor will address the difference within the counselling room. Looking at power dynamics, and vulnerability. Offering a safe and non judgmental space he can look at the clients  difficulties, difference and success due to his skin tone. The counsellor may look into how the client sees his skin tone as an asset or how he has been alienated for it. Addressing whether underlying social stereotypes is attached to this or if there is room to turn experiences into success. He will listen to how the difference effects emotion and feelings. Using that empathy, up holding positive regard and remebering boundaries to maintain the safe space. They may explore and understand the emotions and feelings within the situations. The client may become more comfortable with himself and develop strategies to find more successes and self-actualise.
