Counseling Through Community Conditions (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Counseling through Community Conditions represents a comprehensive and contemporary resource for counselors and related mental health professionals across settings who wish to embody an approach to their practice that accounts for the full range of community conditions that influence development. 

Social determinants of mental health (SDMH) not only serve as a lynchpin that unifies the myriad bio-psycho-social-cultural-political influences on mental health but also as a skeleton key that can unlock pathways to mental health based on client-specific cues about well-being. This text represents the first of its kind within the counseling literature to provide a depiction of how an SDMH framework can serve as an ontological impetus for holistic and developmentally focused counseling practice that is firmly rooted in social justice and equity-minded action. The SDMH have been embraced by related health professions such as psychiatry, clinical psychology, counseling psychology, and social work with each providing specialized periodical and text resources through their member organizations.
