A Uniquely Canadian Approach to Multicultural Counselling

By M. Honore France, Maria del Carmen Rodriguez, and Geoffrey G. Hett, this book provides a comprehensive guide to multicultural counselling in Canada, acknowledging the country’s diverse population and the importance of culturally sensitive approaches.

Canada’s diverse ethnicities, sexualities, gender identities, abilities, and religious backgrounds require a tailored approach to counselling. This collection brings together Canadian perspectives and practical methods for working with Indigenous, Asian, Black Canadian, Hispanic, South Asian, and LGBTQ2+ communities, as well as migrant and refugee clients.

The third edition of Diversity, Culture and Counselling tackles pressing issues such as systemic racism, immigration policy, climate change, and discriminatory policies, reflecting the significant changes in Canada since the previous edition. A new chapter on counselling during national crises has been added, and each chapter has been revised to reflect the current state of diversity in Canadian counselling, with contributors from diverse backgrounds.
