Book excerpt: Follow the professional journey of a Native American counselor, who, although educated in mainstream American universities, found herself, once on the job, lacking in skills necessary to be therapeutic for her cultural clients. "Counseling Native Americans: Spiritual and Multicultural Insights from Swan Circle," provides authentic observations of how American Indian clients relate to the natural, social, personal, and spiritual environments. The book is a significant contribution to the large literature on cross-cultural therapy. ?Dr. Catherine Reimer?s search for cross-cultural understandings and techniques is a fascinating read. Insights on how to integrate nature and spirituality should be especially helpful to counselors, psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, and related professionals who may sometimes feel that they are being educated in a ?spirit free? zone.? Clemmont E. Vontress, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus of Counseling, George Washington University. ?Wonderfully organized and thoughtfully constructed, this comprehensive engaging book will be a major source for understanding the complexities associated with providing mental health services for counseling American Indians and Alaska Natives for years to come.? Readers are asked ?to think deeply about the realities of the indigenous groups that people write about and how mental health services and research can be effectively and sensitively provided and conducted. Anyone who is curious about the depth and scope of providing counseling services to indigenous populations should keep this book close by, as it will prove to be a valuable resource.? Joseph E. Trimble, Ph.D., Distinguished University Professor, Professor of Psychology, Western Washington University. Foreword by Martha Norman Rashid, Professor Emerita, George Washington, University and Jane A. Simington, Ph.D. Originally published in 2013 as The Circle of Swans: Journey of a Native American Counselor.

Book excerpt: This unique book examines the physical, psychological, social, and environmental factors that support or undermine healthy development in American Indian children, including economics, biology, and public policies. The reasons for mental health issues among American Indian and Alaska Native children have not been well understood by investigators outside of tribal communities. Developing appropriate methodological approaches and evidence-based programs for helping these youths is an urgent priority in developmental science. This work must be done in ways that are cognizant of how the negative consequences of colonization contribute to American Indian and Alaska Native tribal members' underutilization of mental health services, higher therapy dropout rates, and poor response to culturally insensitive treatment programs. This book examines the forces affecting psychological development and mental health in American Indian children today. Experts from leading universities discuss factors such as family conditions, economic status, and academic achievement, as well as political, social, national, and global influences, including racism. Specific attention is paid to topics such as the role of community in youth mental health issues, depression in American Indian parents, substance abuse and alcohol dependency, and the unique socioeconomic characteristics of this ethnic group.

This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of national, state, and institutional initiatives to increase access to higher education, the college pipeline for American Indian and Alaska Native students remains largely unaddressed. As a result, little is known and even less is understood about the critical isues, conditions, and postsecondary transitions of this diverse group of students. Framed around the concept of tribal nation building, this monograph reviews the research on higher education for Indigenous peoples in the United States. It offers an analysis of what is currently known about postsecondary education among Indigenous students, Native communities, and tribal nations. Also offered is an overview of the concept of tribal nation building, with the suggestion that future research, policy, and practice center the ideas of nation building, sovereignty, Indigenous knowledge systems, and culturally responsive schooling.

Book excerpt: In this book, the authors highlight the importance of eliminating health disparities and increasing the access of Native Americans to critical substance abuse and mental health services. While most chapters are framed in scientific terms, they are concerned with promoting healing through changes in the way we treat our sick-spiritually, traditionally, ceremonially, and scientifically-whether in rural areas, on reservations, and in cities. The book will be a valuable resource for medical and mental health professionals, medical anthropologists, and the Native health community. Visit our website for sample chapters!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This current and comprehensive handbook will guide educators, students, and clinicians in developing the awareness, knowledge, and skills necessary to work effectively with LGBTQI+ populations. Twenty-five chapters written by experts in the field provide direction for working with clients in an authentic, ethical, and affirmative manner that is tailored to their individual strengths, needs, and identity. The book is divided into four sections, which explore the science behind gender and affectional orientation; developmental issues across the life span and treatment issues; the specialized needs of nine distinct populations; and the intersectionality of ethnicity and overlapping identities, the role of religion, and counselor advocacy. To further a deeper understanding of the content, each chapter contains an "Awareness of Attitudes and Beliefs Self-Check," a case narrative relating to the material covered, questions for discussion, and a list of online resources. The book concludes with an extensive glossary of terms, both preferred and problematic, which counselors working with these communities should understand and use appropriately. *Requests for digital versions from the ACA can be found on wiley.com. *To request print copies, please visit the ACA website here. *Reproduction requests for material from books published by ACA should be directed to [email protected]
