Along with the trend of the world, there is a trend of increasing multicultural families and children with the advent of the era of multiculturalism in Korean society. This demonstrates that our society is rapidly transforming into a multi-racial and multi-cultural society. Most of multicultural families experience a high level of distress in adapting to Korean society due to cultural differences between their indigenous culture and the hosting Korean culture. As a way to help them cope with the psychosocial stress in their process of adapting to Korean culture, the intervention through multicultural family counseling has been emphasized. This research reviewed the effect of utilizing art therapy in multicultural family counseling, and examined if the utilization of art therapy helps multicultural family members overcome their communication difficulty or language barriers among the family members, and facilitates their participation in the counseling process. Through a literature review, the factors which play in conflict among multicultural family members and the efficacy of art therapy were examined. Furthermore, multicultural family art therapy programs that have been proven effective were explored. In conclusion, multicultural family counseling utilizing art therapy is an adequate mode of therapy when working with multicultural family and has a great potential to facilitate their adjustment to Korean society. The therapy involves looking at oneself holistically and searching for the self-image as well as healing inner wounds through the action of self expression.
