A PERSONAL APPROACH TO COUNSELING USING A SHORT STORY A Personal Approach to Counseling Using a Short Story Being a counselor and working with people‚ things are not always as easy as they seem to be.

Multicultural Counseling After reading the many articles on the notion of diagnosis and counseling with multicultural/ethnic patients‚ it has come to my attention that this focus is solely based on stereotypical attitudes. Sure‚ it can be said that it is important for a therapist to have a background of the patient’s heritage and culture‚ but doesn’t this necessarily mean that the outlook of the therapist will be put in a box by doing so?

Genetic Counseling Decision-Making In my opinion‚ I think that Jenny and Bob Miller should take the necessary risks in order to make their sons life more comfortable and possibly cure them of their disease in the near future due to gene therapy.
