The ability to work with issues of race and intersectionality within psychology is vital. Contributors with experience in counseling psychology and applied psychology from across varied social contexts and professional settings reframe and challenge familiar concepts such as movements to decolonize the curriculum, psychology, and therapy. This book captures the relationship between the ethos of counseling psychology and race, offering a much-needed guide for how to encompass race and racialized experiences in the training and practice of psychology. Rooted in the United Kingdom context but applicable more widely, contributions cover training, supervision, ethical practice, racial trauma, bias and diagnosis, and politics, as well as perspectives and approaches in practice at the intersection of race and gender, age, neurodiversity, sexuality, and spirituality.
This is a key resource for the continued development of in-training and experienced psychologists and psychotherapists, as well as other practitioners within the mental health and allied professions. It will also be of use to students in clinical training programs and courses such as applied psychology, counseling, and psychotherapy.
