Psychological Interventions from Six Continents Purves Caroline
This book presents psychological assessment and intervention in a cultural and relational context. A Collaborative/Therapeutic Assessment model, including work with immigrant communities, and Indigenous modalities underscore individual and collective case illustrations highlighting equality in the roles of the provider and the receiver of services. A diverse range of contributors representing six continents and eleven countries write about their therapeutic interventions, all of which break the traditional assessor-as-expert-oriented framework and offer a creative adaptation in service delivery.
Some chapters describe a partnership with a Eurocentric scientific model, whilst others adopt a purely community method, preserved with Indigenous language and subjective methodology. Universality and uniqueness of culture are explored as a construct and through case material. This volume
