Produktbeschreibung
The revised edition of Multicultural Issues in Counseling reflects the changing socio-political landscape as pertains to social justice and multicultural diversity and impact on mental health. New and revised chapters are authored by persons with lived cultural experiences and how those experiences inform counseling persons of varying racial or ethnic backgrounds. The counseling and human development needs of people identified as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) are thoughtfully examined. Racial and ethnic groups in the U.S. have experienced centuries of systemic discrimination, oppression, and trauma. These experiences can have profound and lasting effects on mental health. In contemporary society, BIPOC individuals often face disparities in education, healthcare, employment, and the criminal justice system. These disparities can contribute to stress, anxiety, trauma, and other mental health issues. Further, diverse BIPOC groups have unique worldviews, values, and beliefs that can influence their understanding of mental health and the traditional counseling process. Professional counselors, therefore, need to be aware of and sensitive to these cultural factors to establish rapport and provide effective interventions. Although race/ethnicity is but one aspect of a person's identity, a focus on this factor can help counselors understand the complex interplay of others such as gender, class, sexual orientation, and disability. The ideas presented in the book will be developed out of both the professional and personal experiences of the contributing authors. A concerted effort will be made throughout the book to explore the cultural dynamics of the selected groups in as non-stereotypical fashion as possible. One pervasive theme throughout the book will be that all people in a particular group do not act or think in the same manner and that, while cultural knowledge is important, it is critical to approach each client as a unique individual.
