Is there any case law in support of the Eighth Amendment for refusing professional mental health treatment because he does not trust the white mental health staff?

Nor did Keesh show the existence of a genuine issue of fact as to whether he suffered a serious deprivation of mental health treatment, as he was offered professional mental health treatment but refused because "he did not trust the white mental health staffs provided." "So long as the treatment given is adequate, the fact that a prisoner might prefer a different treatment does not give rise to an Eighth Amendment violation." Chance v. Armstrong, 143 F.3d 698, 703 (2d Cir. 1998).
