Cultural Humility

“The greatest strength of Cultural Humility is the inclusion of case studies in the concluding chapters and the case vignettes that are shared throughout the text. I found the case vignettes to be realistic and reflective of the complexity and challenge that often characterizes many of the exchanges between a client and clinician.” —PsycCRITIQUES

This work on cultural humility critiques and extends the concept of multicultural competence, and offers theoreticians and practitioners a different and perhaps more effective framework for carrying out meaningful therapy with a broad range of multicultural clients. -- William E. Cross, Jr., PhD, Past President, American Psychological Association Division 45, and author of Shades of Black
Presenting a compelling case for cultural humility, the authors bring the concept to life through writing that is personally engaging and through many examples, tools, and exercises. They provide readers with numerous opportunities to learn a culturally humble stance in treatment contexts. This is important reading for any counselor or psychotherapist and a great resource for faculty in graduate training programs. -- Rodney K. Goodyear, PhD, Professor and Chair, Department of Counseling and Human Services, University of Redlands, Redlands, CA; Emeritus Professor of Education (Counseling Psychology), University of Southern California, Los Angeles
As we move from cultural competence to cultural humility, this book provides useful frameworks for therapist self-reflection and for addressing clients' cultural identities in therapeutic work. Case examples, which include the authors' personal experiences, make the information practical and relevant. An excellent resource for multicultural training and practicum courses. -- Y. Barry Chung, PhD, Indiana University Bloomington
