Social work and relational theory have long been clinical comrades,
given their shared goals and ideals. This close fit continues to be
productive as client populations and their needs grow more diverse.
Clinical Social Work Practice with Diverse Populations sorts
through vital matters of race, ethnicity, sexuality, religion and
social status--and addresses groups and issues often seen in
practice but rarely encountered in print--with a profound
understanding of the healing power of relational-based treatment.
Case examples illustrate all stages of social work process,
offering practice guidelines for working with members of diverse
groups while emphasizing the uniqueness of every therapeutic dyad.
The coverage recognizes the multiple relationships that comprise
individuals' lives as well as the individuality that co-exists
within group identity. And the contributors carefully show readers
how to check themselves for biases and us-versus-them thinking and
how to develop confidence along with clinical skills. Included in
this first-of-its-kind text: * Practice technique and research
support for relational therapy. * Whiteness: Deconstruction of a
practice paradox. * Racial and ethnic diversity, including African
American, Latino, Asian American, and Asian Indian clients. *
Religious diversity: evangelical Christians, Muslim, and Orthodox
Jewish clients. * Diversity of sexual identity: LGBT clients. *
Diversity of life-altering experiences: combat veterans, reentry
from incarceration, homelessness. * Plus: background chapters
providing a framework for applying relational theory to social
work. Bridging the knowledge gaps between the diversity literature
and the practical literature, Relational Social Work Practice with
Diverse Populations supplies clinical social work professionals,
educators, and counselors with tools and concepts for effective,
efficient practice.
