Synopsis "counseling international students (in English)"

the global nature of todays society has created more international students than ever, and these students face an increasing variety of demands while living and learning across cultures. counselors are one of the key resources available to such students, yet they themselves have often not had significant training in this area. addressing this need, counseling international students: clients from around the world, provides essential information for professionals working with students during cross-cultural transition. this book introduces readers to contributions made by international students in higher education, and supplies in-depth information about the nature of cross-cultural transitions including initial entry to the host culture as well as the return home. a framework of multicultural counseling competencies is applied with suggestions for counselors to increase their self-awareness, knowledge, skills, and abilities for organizational development. case examples, throughout, highlight the range of roles and strategies that can be used in counseling international students, and the book is filled with practical information for enhancing counseling services for this population. the audience for this book is counselors and other mental health professionals who deal with cross-cultural issues as well as students in this area.
