More About the Author
Product Description
Review
"Writing in collaboration with Joyce Thompson, Colin Lago has provided a comprehensive treatment of sensitive and complex issuesthat counsellors and therapists, of all schools of thought, will welcome and admire...It should (and probably will) become a standard text-book on counsellor training courses, but its appeal is wider than counselling only. All 'helpers' will find something of value in this book." - Person Centred Practice. "...a very timely and rich contribution to a somewhat sparse body of work published in a British context...very good value for money. Full of valuable and useful material for counsellors/psychotherapists, trainers, students and those whose interest or professions lie in racial and cultural issues in mental health." - Race and Cultural Education in Counselling. "...a book which could increase the effectiveness of anyone working in the field of counselling or psychotherapy." - Contact - The Interdisciplinary Journal of Pastoral Studies. "Race, Culture and Counselling is more than a 'how to' book. It puts counselling and psychotherapy as we aim to practice it today into a cultural, philosophical and historical context. In doing so the authors take us back to basics by reminding us that we do not practice in a vacuum or sterile environment." -British Journal of Psychotherapy "...a ready-made agenda for action." - British Journal of Guidance and Counselling "...a useful introductory reader for psychotherapists and counsellors involved in work which brings them face to face withissues of race and culture." - British Journal of Psychotherapy.

Product Description
Communication is key to the therapeutic relationship, and culture and language are at the core of communication.

Topics discussed include:
- Important issues concerning race and power
- The impact culture has on communication
- How dominant theories influence counseling
- The concept of mixed-identity therapeutic relationships
