ABSTRACT Foreign language anxiety (FLA) is an under-addressed concern for non-native English speaking (L2) counseling trainees in U.S. counselor training programs. We review the literature on FLA, discuss its negative impact on counselor self-efficacy (CSE), and detail a peer-led support group grounded in Relational Cultural Theory (RCT) to address L2 counseling trainees’ FLA.

ABSTRACT The author discusses the use of music as a dynamic and practical learning platform to enhance skill acquisition for counselors-in-training. Rationale regarding the use of contemporary songs to facilitate skill development in the classroom is provided. Notions related to creatively engaging learners, neuroscience, enriching self-awareness, and embracing diverse expression is integrated within this rationale. A user-friendly 5-Step practical guide outlining specific strategies for using songs in the classroom to develop counseling skills is offered. Concrete examples depicting the acquisition of microskills for counselors-in-training are presented within this guide. Lastly, a playlist of diverse contemporary songs is supplied for instructors to apply these practical strategies meaningfully and creatively in the classroom (see Appendix).

An accelerated need for effective and accessible therapy for children has become more evident in 2020 by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV2 (COVID-19) pandemic. This global health crisis has exacerbated an existing mental health care crisis for children, particularly for those of color and low income who have a history of being disproportionately underserved. Teletherapy may address some of the barriers that prevent many children from receiving mental health services. Play-based strategies can be creatively integrated in teletherapy to maintain a relational, developmentally appropriate, and evidence-based approach to working with children in a virtual setting. In this article, creative ways to facilitate virtual play-based strategies are provided. Specific information about set-up, accessibility, selectability, scaffolding technology, developmental and cultural considerations, limit setting, and documentation for virtual sessions is discussed. Access to creative and theoretically informed teletherapy practices will strengthen the mental health response needed to reduce disparities in care.

ABSTRACT The study examines the efficacy of “Six Thinking Dupatta Skills” as a problem-solving skill for the prevention of suicide in wives who were grieving of Bathinda district (Punjab) who had lost their husbands because of suicide. It was hypothesized that this method would be effective in alleviating suicidal ideation, grief, depression and build resilience in them. Three wives who were grieving wives (average age 45.22 years old) from the Bathinda district of Punjab (India) were given “Six Thinking Dupatta Skills” as problem-solving skills in five stages. The findings suggest the ‘Six thinking Dupatta Skills can be effective as problem-solving skills at the time of grieving situations.

ABSTRACT Black women face significant stressors that impact their emotional and mental health. Counselors have a unique opportunity to provide culturally responsive and affirming counseling that works toward the liberation of Black women from oppression, marginalization, and psychological distress. However, there is not a current theory that specifically addresses the nuances of Black women’s experiences, focusing especially on the vital relevance of religion and spirituality. To that end, we propose an integrated model of Relational Cultural Theory and Womanist Theology. This article provides an outline of the proposed model, suggestions for therapeutic application, and considerations for counselors.

ABSTRACT Counseling governing bodies have clearly defined what should be prioritized in multicultural counseling courses, including students’ multicultural knowledge and awareness; however, best practice regarding how to teach these multicultural concepts has largely been left up to the counselor educator. This phenomenological study explored the lived experience of master’s level counseling students who participated in weekly expressive arts activities as a part of a diversity class and offers a best practice model for implementing ethical and effective experiential learning using expressive arts techniques.

ABSTRACT Alcoholism is a serious problem that is difficult to treat. This study investigated the effects of group counseling utilizing narrative therapy on self-esteem, stress response, and insight for alcoholism. We utilized a nonequivalent control group, non-synchronized design. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Fisher’s exact test, Chi-squared test, independent and paired t-tests, and repeated measures ANOVA. The experimental group showed significant improvements in self-esteem (F = 14.03, p < .001), stress response (F = 4.31, p <.05), and insight (F = 21.27, p < .001) after the intervention compared with the control group. Additionally, there were significant improvements in self-esteem (t = −6.32, p < .05), stress response (t = 4.93, p < .05), and insight (t = −5.02, p <. 05) within the experimental group after the intervention. Thus, narrative therapy is recommended as an autonomous regulation approach for developing strengths necessary to refrain from alcoholism.
酗酒是一个难以治疗的严重问题。本研究探讨叙事性治疗对酗酒者自尊、压力反应和洞察力的影响。我们采用非等量对照组，非同步设计。收集的资料采用描述性统计、Fisher精确检验、卡方检验、独立和配对t检验、重复测量方差分析进行分析。实验组干预后自尊(F = 14.03, p <. 001)、应激反应(F = 4.31, p <.05)、洞察力(F = 21.27, p <. 001)均较对照组有显著改善。此外，自尊(t = - 6.32, p < 0.05)、压力反应(t = 4.93, p < 0.05)和洞察力(t = - 5.02, p < 0.05)均有显著改善。05)干预后实验组内的差异。因此，叙述疗法被推荐为一种自主调节方法，用于发展避免酗酒所必需的力量。

ABSTRACT This qualitative and phenomenological study investigated the experiences of eleven counselors-in-training (CITs) exposed to four live computer-projected scenes and sounds of nature (running stream, snowy mountain landscape, campfire in the forest, and ocean setting) at the start of their practicum classes. The researchers sought to explore the subjective experiences of the CIT’s exposed to the technology-driven natural environment at the beginning of four consecutive practicum meetings. The findings suggest that technology can be harnessed to catalyze many of the same benefits that prior counselor education-based research indicates can be derived from engagement with the natural world: a decrease in negative emotional states that block learning and engagement, an increased sense of connectedness to class peers, and an enhanced recognition of the importance of self-care and personal wellness. Implications for counselor education programs, counselor educators, and counseling students are explored.
