"As a counselor educator, I am constantly searching for textbooks and other reading materials that are not only informative, but also interesting and highly readable. Culturally Alert Counseling: A Comprehensive Introduction incorporates all these qualities. Culturally Alert Counseling is a well-organized, thoughtful presentation of multicultural counseling. The authors effectively encourage readers to examine the complex nature of culture and how it impacts all stages of the counseling process."
-Kristin L. Barnes,COUNSELING TODAY
"I have just started using your textbook, Culturally Alert Counseling by McAuliffe and Assoc., but so far I am very impressed. It is so concise and detailed. The activities just add to the classroom experience for the students. The resources are phenomenal. I am really going to enjoy using this text this semester. It has made this class new, fresh, and exciting for me as the instructor. I waded through probably 50 textbooks trying to find one that even came close to what I was looking for. I didn't realize that I had found such a great text."
-Lea Ann Garcia, M.Ed., University of Central Oklahoma
This is the first comprehensive guide to culturally alert counseling, complete with a companion demonstration DVD, that is readable and experiential. Editor Garrett J. McAuliffe expands the traditional "definition" of multicultural counseling from the usual two categories of race and ethnicity to eight categories that include: race, ethnicity, gender, religion/spirituality, class, and sexual orientation. With case vignettes and interactive activities, students will be informed, moved, and changed by the encounters with culture that lie in these pages.
Key Features
Offers cutting-edge presentations for each cultural area: National leaders in each topic present a deep but readable, and uniformly formatted, treatment of each cultural area.
Goes beyond race and ethnicity: Using a constructivist methodology, conceptual foundations are laid in discussions of social inequality, social justice, social diversity, and critical consciousness.
Intersects cultural groupings in theory and clinical practice: Inclusive of all people, both those in dominant and non-dominant cultural groups, so that counselors can work successfully with members of various cultural backgrounds.
Brings conceptual material into concrete experience: Through many practical applications, such as cultural self-awareness activities, boxed anecdotes, engaging case studies, and much more, the book emphasizes clinical experience.
Accompanied by High-Quality Ancillaries! A companion DVD titled Key Practices in Culturally Alert Counseling, vividly illustrates how to engage in culturally alert counseling.
