Humanistic Approaches to Multiculturalism and Diversity provides an overview of essential topics in multicultural psychology and examines the unique humanistic contributions to multicultural psychology on topics often ignored by multicultural psychology. "This excellent volume provides new and important perspectives on humanistic approaches to multicultural issues in clinical theory and psychotherapy. The authors embrace the foundations of humanistic psychology, and place at the core, the humanity and dignity of people. At the same time, they recognize the complex role of historical and ongoing social injustice and sociocultural identity on human experience. The volume expands humanistic psychology toward the inclusion of cultural humility as essential to empathy and connection in the psychotherapeutic relationship. It is an invaluable resource for therapists working with clients of any sociocultural background." - Usha Tummala-Narra, PhD, associate professor in the Department of Counseling, Development, and Educational Psychology, Boston College, USA "I have been so longing for this book to be written! It is a multi-perspectival consideration of the two leading approaches to psychotherapy that were formulated to maximize client empowerment in psychotherapy. Complexities related to how identity, social position, and relationship interact unfold in layer upon layer. Each chapter is a gentle invitation to become aware of another set of implicit beliefs, and by the end of reading you will more clearly understand your clients' lived experiences and gain new perspectives on how therapy can function." - Heidi M. Levitt, professor of psychology, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA "Shockingly honest, refreshing, and accessible to graduate students, academics, and seasoned clinicians, this book provides critical thinking and multifaceted realities. Through lived experiences, psychological literature, and suggested next steps, readers will be validated, challenged, and motivated to expand their theoretical orientation, research paradigms, case conceptualizations, and deepen their use of self in work and life." - Terri M. Davis, director of the PsyD program and associate professor, University of Denver, USA "The celebration of difference and diversity is at the very core of a humanistic ethic; yet humanistic psychology itself, has been woefully inadequate in addressing issues of multiculturalism, racism, and the dehumanisation of minority groups. The value of this book, therefore, is immense: taking our field right to the forefront of current debates and dialogues on these issues. In this respect, it deserves a place on the bookshelf of every humanistic psychologist." - Mick Cooper, University of Roehampton, UK and author ofExistential Therapies
