Honoring Their Way: Counseling American Indian Women
Rayle, Andrea Dixon; Chee, Christine; Sand, Jennifer K.
Journal of Multicultural Counseling and Development, v34 n2 p66 Apr 2006
The authors review current literature on issues facing American Indian (AI) women and discuss implications for providing culturally sensitive counseling with these women. A case study of a Dine (Navajo) woman living within mainstream society and holding true to her traditional cultural beliefs illustrates how a culturally responsive approach to counseling AI women is integral for individual counseling with this population.
