"Looking at the pillars of ethnicity, class, race, gender, ability, and sexual orientation from a theoretical and clinical perspective, Multicultural Counseling and Psychotherapy provides students with a guide to framing difficult discussions around multiculturalism. An essential text and model for educators as we empower our students to embrace and appreciate their impact in a multitude of therapeutic encounters, the new edition frames an understanding of multicultural scholarship and pedagogy in today’s changing and challenging world."Sharon Blackwell Jones, PhD, assistant professor of counselor education at Radford University"Multicultural Counseling and Psychotherapy is a thoughtful and thorough addition to the counseling profession. The integration of the current understanding of multicultural counseling and lifespan development recognizes an often overlooked tenet that clients are influenced by culture, and the manifestation of their unique experience interacts with the transitional nature of human development. The case studies bring the concepts to life for the student of counseling and the activities provide a real bonus for the professor."E.H. Mike Robinson, PhD, professor of counselor education at the University of Central Florida"In Multicultural Counseling and Psychotherapy, case studies illustrate points that help students to consider critical concepts when applying techniques to diverse groups. Various aspects of diversity are considered using a lifespan approach. The intersection of age, race, gender, sexual orientation, and life experiences are explored and considered as theories and techniques are discussed. This edition also has a strong social justice perspective that encourages the reader to consider divergent viewpoints and various worldviews. I highly recommend this textbook."Wendy Killam, PhD, NCC, CRC, LPC, professor at Stephen F. Austin State University
