"This book demonstrates the clinical expertise needed to practice with Latina/o communities, and is a significant advancement in providing effective, state-of-the-art counseling with this population.

In what may be the most comprehensive book published to date about counseling Latinas/os, the authors provide culture-centered assessment and intervention strategies for effective clinical practice with individuals and families. Counselors and other mental health professionals will gain new and expanded cultural competence as they learn to sensitively and ethically integrate Latino values into their work. Throughout the text, case scenarios illustrate ways to work successfully with Latina/o clients of all ages. A sample culture-centered clinical interview is included, along with a listing of Latino-specific mental health resources.

Topics discussed include roles, relationships, and expectations in Latino families; cultural and bicultural values; gender role socialization; generational differences; identity and acculturation issues; educational values and achievement; Latinas/os in the workforce; religious beliefs and practices; and interventions for working with diverse clients, including those who have immigrated from Cuba, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and South and Central America.
