How we think about African Americans is how we respond to them. The historical and present-day murder, victimization and hostile treatment of Black Americans exhibits society's dehumanized view of the African American community. Over the last four decades, much has been written about meeting the counseling needs of clients of color. Specifically, the 2016 CACREP standards and AMCD’s multicultural and social justice competencies address the importance of multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skill in professional counseling practice. However, these important preparation requirements are necessary but not sufficient to meaningfully engage in culturally responsive counseling with African American clients.

A major challenge in counseling for African Americans is the desire to be understood and to receive appropriate mental health care. This webinar will present specific guidelines for counselor education programs and licensed professional counselors to work effectively with African American clients.

Dr. Carla Adkison-Johnson is a Professor in the Department of Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology at Western Michigan University (WMU).
