This article is a response to Michael Vogel’s article, “Transitioning Integration: The Case of Regan.” This response highlights Vogel’s ideas on cultural-linguistic models that center culture in understanding religious and spiritual traditions. In addition, this article captures Vogel’s therapeutic sensibilities throughout his work which enabled him to engage with his client’s multiplicity, fluidity, and permeability. This response riffs off of Vogel’s work and attempts to further his ideas of cultural-linguistic models of integration that encompass the Cultural Third and the conscious and unconscious reactions of clients and clinicians. Furthermore, guidelines are provided in how one might become a culturally informed integrative practitioner.
