Recensioner i media

"For decades, the experiences of South Asian Americans had been minimized or erased in Asian American Studies, Counseling, and Psychology. With chapters covering topics like colonialism, parenting, gender, and sexuality, the editors provide the first comprehensive text about the mental health experiences of this umbrella group. Through case studies, South Asian American readers may feel validated in learning how others navigate issues like identity development and cultural conflict; meanwhile, mental health practitioners will gain foundational insights to assist in serving a population that is typically excluded from their training or textbooks."Kevin L. Nadal, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor, City University of New York, and Past President of Asian American Psychological Association "This is the book that all clinicians working with South Asian American clients have been waiting for. The unique issues related to migration, culture, assimilation, social class and caste, religion, and colonialism all impact treatment planning and case conceptualization, and are issues that are often not traditionally covered in graduate training. This volume recognizes the heterogeneity of South Asian American clients, finally addresses intersectional issues associated with gender, colorism, LGBTQIA+ identities, and aging, and brings together authors with expertise in working with this diverse population." Ramani Durvasula, Ph.D., Professor Emerita, Clinical Psychologist, Author
