상세정보

This book explores the cultural, linguistic and educational challenge presented by deaf people to traditional, broad-based humanistic counselling theory and practice which hinges on the ability to "hear" and to "listen". It examines issues of methodology, empowerment, caring, ethnocentricity, alienism and paternalism within counselling practice in different contexts. Using the author's personal experience of and creative approaches to counselling, the book charts the development of "seeing skills", cultural and linguistic awareness, the client's personal power, role boundaries and communicative infrastructures in informing counsellor styles and core values when working with deaf clients. Case studies and dialogues from deaf counsellors and clients working within and across cultural and linguistic boundaries are included, and also practical exercises for use in training and developing awareness.
