The authors describe the use of a relational‐cultural theory (RCT) lens (Miller, ) in counseling practice with lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning (LGBTQQ) clients. A review of LGBTQQ counseling and RCT literature is discussed. A case vignette of a counselor applying RCT tenets to work with a LGBTQQ client is described. Implications for using RCT as a counseling theoretical framework with LGBTQQ clients are reviewed.
In this consensual qualitative research study, we explored how school counselors enact multicultural education behaviors by studying the experiences of 10 practicing school counselors. We also examined barriers that prevent school counselors from implementing multicultural education. Participants described acknowledging their contexts, being influenced by intrapersonal factors and awareness of others, and implementing different types of interventions. We discuss implications for practicing school counselors to navigate barriers and enact multicultural education in their schools.
