The Convergence of Race, Ethnicity and Gender: Multiple Identities in Counseling (5th Edition) – eBook

Students, beginning and seasoned mental health professionals, will be better prepared for diversity practice by this accessible, timely, provocative, and critical work, The Convergence of Race, Ethnicity and Gender: Multiple Identities in Counseling, Fifth Edition (PDF). Through both the time-honored tradition of storytelling and clinically-focused case studies, author Tracy Robinson-Wood demonstrates the process of patient and therapist transformation.  This insightful, practical resource offers behavioral health professionals a nuanced view of diversity beyond race, culture, and ethnicity to include and interrogate intersectionality among race, culture, age, class, nationality, gender, sexuality, religion, and disability. With a keen focus on quality patient care, this critical textbook aims to help professionals better serve patients across sources of diversity. Readers will recognize their roles and responsibilities as social justice agents of change while identifying the ways in which dominant cultural beliefs and values furnish and perpetuate clients’ feelings of stuckness and inadequacy in both the therapeutic alliance and within the larger society. This remarkable textbook reveres the lifelong commitment to using knowledge and skills as power for good to make a meaningful difference in people′s lives.
