Inside are powerful, first-person accounts of the often traumatising silencing of counsellors of colour within, and by, their own profession. These are searingly honest and rarely detailed stories of practitioners being shamed, excluded, violated, rendered invisible and deeply wounded by their experiences in training and in practice. But they are also stories of strength, courage, resourcefulness and growth. Some therapists may find deep recognition and affirmation in these accounts, as well as hope and healing. Others may better understand how their own fragility and bias have led them to similar behaviours and harmful mistakes. The book compellingly captures the nuances and fractures of racial and intersectional trauma and illustrates many of the damaging ways that conscious and unconscious ideas of race, and other aspects of personhood, are still woven into society. This is an essential read that brings together personal, psychological, societal and political insights to better imagine and further the discourse around what might facilitate meaningful change.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 12mmItem Weight: 400gContributor: Neelam Zahid (Edited by), Rachel Cooke (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, MedicineISBN-10: 1915220297Author: Editors - Neelam Zahid and Rachel CookeType: Other Branches of MedicineRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
