Overview
Becoming a Multiculturally Competent Counselor is a core text for counselor education courses found in departments of counseling and psychology. Changming Duan and Chris Brown use an integrated approach to the development of a strong multicultural counselor identity, providing students with the knowledge and skills that cover all competency areas, as identified by the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP).
Becoming a Multiculturally Competent Counselor is based on a revised version of the theoretical stage model, and pays special attention to all areas of diversity, both nationally and internationally. The book begins with a section devoted to professional counseling, and then transitions to the more defined area of multicultural counseling in the 21st century. Subsequent sections are devoted to developing the student’s multicultural identity, working with the culturally diverse, and working within social justice and advocacy. There is a skills section that includes case examples, as well as a section that includes the unique feature titled “From the Author’s Chair” in which the editors of the series will interview the authors of each volume.
