Multiculturally Competent Counseling: Adjusting to a Client's Worldview emphasizes the critical role of cultural understanding in counseling, presenting a unique phase model to guide readers through the intricacies of multicultural counseling dynamics. It explores the influence of a client's worldview on the counseling relationship and process, arguing for the development of knowledge, skills, and sensitivity to different self-and-world views in therapy. The book examines key topical areas such as the evolution of multiculturalism in counseling, the formation of a working alliance, the identification of issues considering cultural contexts, and goal setting with a multicultural perspective. It advocates for expanding the counselor's role beyond traditional interventions to include advocacy and continuous self-reflection to navigate the evolving cultural landscape effectively. Hands-on activities are integrated to cultivate a reader's cultural self-awareness and their understanding of others. Designed for mental health training programs, Multiculturally Competent Counseling addresses competencies required for CACREP accreditation and is ideally suited for individuals in mental health counseling, school counseling, clinical and community psychology, and clinical social work. It serves as a comprehensive resource for those invested in developing and applying multicultural competence throughout their professional practice.
