Main description:

Contemporary Psychotherapies for a Diverse World is the first book of its kind to cover the standard counseling theories and integrate multiculturalism into every theory chapter. In addition, every theory chapter is authored by an expert with experience applying individual therapies to a diverse range of clients. Along with traditional theories, the text includes chapters on reality therapy, feminist therapy, and narrative therapy. The chapter on ethics includes multicultural and feminist perspectives. Student-friendly and engaging, Contemporary Psychotherapies provides case examples, end-of-chapter resources, and suggestions for taking learning beyond the classroom.
