Helps counselors-in-training develop their sense of identity as advocates and seekers of social justice

Distinguished by a potent social justice and multicultural perspective, this comprehensive introductory text for counselors-in-training delivers foundational concepts through the lens of advocacy and intersectionality. This book emphasizes exploration of the individual and collective effect of local, national, and global social issues on clients and their communities and imparts real world experiences from authors and clinical experts who provide personal accounts of challenges and successes in their practices.

The text examines key evidence-based counseling theories with an in-depth focus on trauma-informed counseling and prompts reflection and dialogue about critical issues in counselor development.

Engaging activities that foster self-analysis and self-actualization illuminate the path to becoming a professional counselor.
