Students, beginning and seasoned mental health professionals will be better prepared for diversity practice by this accessible, timely, provocative, and critical work, The Convergence of Race, Ethnicity and Gender: Multiple Identities in Counseling, Fifth Edition. Author Tracy Robinson-Wood demonstrates, through both the time honored tradition of storytelling and clinically-focused case studies, the process of patient and therapist transformation. This insightful, practical resource offers behavioral health professionals a nuanced view of diversity beyond race, culture, and ethnicity to include and interrogate intersectionality among race, culture, gender, sexuality, age, class, nationality, religion, and disability. With a keen focus on quality patient care, this important text aims to help professionals better serve patients across sources of diversity. Readers will recognize their roles and responsibilities as social justice agents of change, while identifying the ways in which dominant cultural beliefs and values furnish and perpetuate clients’ feelings of stuckness and inadequacy, in both the therapeutic alliance and within the larger society. This remarkable text reveres the lifelong commitment of using knowledge and skills as power for good to make a meaningful difference in people's lives.

This book is a poetic odyssey chronicling the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of an African/American woman of part Native American ancestry as she navigates the challenges of living life as a Black woman in America. She is guided on her journey by Deer, her Totem and Spirit Guide, and the Spirit of the Great Mother Goddess, who come to her in poems, some introducing new stages in her life, some celebrating joyful moments, and some guiding her through difficult and challenging experiences. The poems in this book encompass both wide-ranging and intense breadth and depth. They are raw, intense, passionate, tender, and revealing, ranging from plaintive pleas of desperation to joyful songs of celebration. These poems capture the author's fears and hopes, joys and sorrows, passions and despairs, and loves and losses. They bear witness to her experience of life, starting from a shy and alienated teenager, through the intensities of love and marriage, and her descent into drugs and depression; through the devastations of infertility, early menopause, and divorce, to new loves and losses; the joy of experiencing motherhood and raising a child, and finally into her now twilight years. She has been guided through it all by seeking and listening to her Spirit Guides and her optimism and faith in both the Divine and humanity.
