Reviews
Goforth and Pham gifted us with a book that is essential for contemporary school psychology practice. They engage us in a journey of applying cultural reflexivity, cultural humility, and learning the value of relational empowerment. The book provides a strong instructional foundation that is grounded in asset-based theoretical frameworks. Goforth and Pham are courageous as they critique traditional assessment practices and offer research-based alternative assessment tools that are designed to disrupt the systemic oppression that is often perpetuated through traditional assessment practices. This is a must-read for school-based practitioners. * Janine Jones, University of Washington * The information provided in this text is relevant for anyone involved in the helping professions of counseling, psychology, or social work. With the current emphasis on culturally responsive strategies and methods, this text provides readers with contemporary, appropriate, and pertinent knowledge to fine-tune their skills. Furthermore, the information provided by Drs. Goforth and Pham is in a clear, coherent, yet captivating style. Drs. Goforth and Pham do not shy away from tackling delicate, sensitive topics, but do it in a manner that is culturally aware and responsive. Beginning and advanced students can begin to become more culturally responsive by utilizing this text. * Isaac Burt, PhD, NCC, University at Buffalo-The State University of New York *
