Sommario/riassunto

Counselling Ideologies draws on both academic experts and practitioners from the UK, USA and Australia, to represent a new approach to counselling and psychotherapy. It will appeal not only to sociologists and those working in the field of mental health, but also to scholars of race and ethnicity, gender, queer studies and queer theory.
