Description

As the population of minority youth continues to mount, it becomes increasingly clear that mental health professionals need the most up-to-date information available when responding to the pressing problems and needs of minorities. Minority Children and Adolescents in Therapy addresses this need by offering a comprehensive, up-to-date examination of therapy with minority children from four major minority groups--Asian and Pacific Americans, American Indians, Hispanic Americans, and Black Americans. After an introductory discussion of principles to be considered in therapy with ethnic minority children and adolescents, the author systematically applies these principles to therapy. Distinctive cultural values of child development and family functioning of each ethnic group are explored. And, to help the reader understand cultural specific intervention strategies, the author shares many useful case vignettes. Designed for professionals and students in psychology, human services, and ethnic studies, this volume will play a major role in helping minority children and adolescents. "This is a very important work for those who are engaged in work with ethnic minority children and adolescents. . . . This book will make appropriate and essential reading for counsellors, therapists, and students of mental health practice." --Counselling
