If you are a minority that wants to enter the field is there much resistance? I would think not? I am sure I saw a stat that upper middle class is most likely to go to therapy. I don't know if there is a big percent of Caucasians over others but they hold a bigger percent anyway. I wonder how far off the statistic would really be from the patient breakdown since many therapists get interested through some personal or family experience.

In my field (IT) it is still white male dominated and still a challenging environment for women and >some< minorities. (South East Asians and Asians integrate well.) Women still struggle with promotions and pay equality.

I would think therapist would be a little easier to get along with just by the nature of the profession. Just speculation.
