A medical interpreter is working in a psychiatric inpatient unit. During a session, the patient — a 34-year-old Somali woman — discloses to her psychiatrist that she has been hearing the voice of a deceased ancestor giving her guidance. The psychiatrist asks the interpreter, 'Is this a common cultural belief, or does it indicate psychosis?' How should the interpreter respond?
