Summary |
This text is unique in that it is the first book to recognize that true multicultural 'competence' in counseling or therapy must start with a deep understanding and acknowledgement that other people's worldview is as legitimate to them as yours is to you.€ Until€you recognize the worth or legitimacy of someone else's views, you will have a hard time communicating across cultural boundaries. Multicultural Counseling contains the firsthand telling of cultural stories (that encompass race, ethnicity, class, gender, and life cycle) of African American, Asian, Hispanic/Latino, and Native. |
