Since its conception by Allen Ivey in the mid-1960s, microcounseling has grown from a methodology for teaching basic counseling skills to a conceptual framework for the multicultural intentional helper. Microcounseling has proven to be a very effective training paradigm with a wide variety of individuals from various cultures and contexts. This text presents not only the latest thinking on microcounseling but, more specifically, outlines the major theoretical constructs and concepts of the microcounseling model. These constructs and concepts are framed within the context of the culturally effective helper. The book also details the skills and dimensions of microcounseling as outlined in the Microcounseling Hierarchy, a methodological approach to the helping process. Also emphasized is microcounseling as a "technology of constructivism." This emphasis is not simply on the skills and dimensions of microcounseling but on the constructive relevance of those skills. The text also presents a current and very comprehensive review of the research on microcounseling, with over 450 studies summarized and reviewed. A wide variety of lay and professional populations have experienced microcounseling, including graduate students, counselors and psychologists, physicians, children, the elderly, and individuals with varying personal challenges. Because of this wide application of microcounseling, this most up-to-date book in the field serves as an essential resource for professionals and graduate and undergraduate students in counseling programs, as well as social workers, nurses, and physicians.

Multicultural Counseling Competencies is a state-of-the-art book integrating the literature and work on multicultural counseling competencies. It draws out implications for individual, professional, and institutional development by identifying the characteristics related to culturally competent mental health care. As such, it has relevance for practitioners who will increasingly encounter client populations who differ from them in terms of race, culture, and ethnicity; it suggests how the mental health profession needs to alter its practices to fit the needs of the culturally different in our society; and it advocates changes in mental health policy, programs, and organization. In a very systematic manner, the text provides a working definition of "multiculturalism" from which counselors, therapists, and social workers can ground their awareness, knowledge, and skills. It presents a new concept called "ethnocentric monoculturalism" and traces how it has inundated our society and the mental health professions. Written by leaders in the field of multicultural counseling, Multicultural Counseling Competencies is a landmark volume in clinical and counseling psychology, educational psychology, gender studies, nursing, social work, psychology, health services, interpersonal violence, and ethnic studies.
