The authors agree that the multicultural counseling movement represents a powerful force with the potential of radically modifying the perspective of the entire counseling profession.

This article reports on the results of a series of investigations designed to assess the impact of a comprehensive multicultural training model among different groups of graduate students.

This article examines the ways that spiritual beliefs and traditions associated with the Filipino culture influenced an 1 I-year-old boy's efforts to cope with the death of his mother. Implications for attending to clients' spiritual beliefs are discussed.Researchers have noted that most people in the United States have some sort of spiritual identity (Gallup & Castelli, 1989;Kelly, 1995). The term spiritual identrty refers to the manner in which a person's spiritual beliefs influence their self-definition and the way that person constructs meaning of life (D'Andrea & Daniels, in press).
