Handbook of Multicultural Competencies in Counseling and Psychology is the first book to offer the theoretical background, practical knowledge, and training strategies needed to achieve multicultural competence. Focusing on a wide range of professional settings, editors Donald . Pope-Davis, Hardin L Coleman, William Ming Liu, and Rebecca L Toporek provide a compendium of the latest research related to multicultural competency and the hands-on framework to develop specialized multicultural practices.

The team that produced the first edition of this comprehensive handbook -- reviewed as the "definitive" reference and an "extraordinary" tool for research on women's psychology -- updates and expands the content to include the newest and breaking research in this young field. With more than 50 percent of the content new compared to the 1993 edition, this will be of wide interest to students and scholars of women's psychology.

The contemporary successor to Marsha Pravder Mirkins acclaimed Women in Context, this eminently practical clinical resource and text provides insights and interventions that have emerged out of decades of work in the psychology of women. All-new chapters from leading practitioners guide therapists to understand how gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, immigration status, religion, and other factors shape the experiences and identities of diverse women, and how to intervene effectively in the multiple contexts of clients lives. Filled with vivid case material, the volume is uniquely structured to address family and relationship issues; work issues and career development; and health, spirituality, and self-care.
