Psycho-Cultural Sensitivity in Indian Context: Integrating Traditional Knowledge with Modern Mental Health Practices

Author(s) Dr. KARANAM MAHABOOB VALI, Dr. Md AMAN AZEEM
Country India
Abstract Integrating Indian Traditional Knowledge (ITK) with contemporary psychological practices in mental health presents a significant opportunity to enhance mental health care within the Indian context. This approach acknowledges the importance of cultural sensitivity and traditional wisdom in addressing psychological issues. Combining ancient healing practices, such as yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda, with current evidence-based therapies, mental health professionals can develop more comprehensive and culturally appropriate interventions. This integration recognizes the deeply embedded spiritual and philosophical concepts inherent in Indian culture, such as the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit, and incorporates them into modern therapeutic frameworks. However, this process requires careful consideration to ensure that traditional knowledge is respected and accurately translated into contemporary psychological practice while maintaining scientific rigour and ethical standards. The successful integration of ITK and modern mental health practices can improve treatment outcomes, reduce stigma, and increase accessibility to mental health services in India by offering interventions that align with the cultural beliefs and values of the population. This paper focuses on Psycho-Cultural Sensitivity in the Indian Context: Integrating Traditional Knowledge with Modern Mental Health Practices.
