“…Research suggests that there are many reasons why White people might feel uncomfortable with talking about race. Scholarship on White fragility (DiAngelo, 2011(DiAngelo, , 2018, the conspiracy of silence (Sue, 2005), White guilt and shame (Grzanka, Frantell, & Fassinger, 2019;Spanierman & Cabrera, 2015), and White fear (Spanierman et al, 2012;Sue, 2011;Sue & Constantine, 2007;Sue, Rivera, Capodilupo, Lin, & Torino, 2010), among others, might help to provide important directions to move beyond resistance and nonracist behaviors to better prepare White antiracist allies for engaging in advocacy efforts.…”

The mainstreaming of White nationalism in the United States and worldwide suggests an urgent need for counseling psychologists to take stock of what tools they have (and do not have) to combat White supremacy. We review the rise of social justice issues in the field of counseling psychology and allied helping professions and point to the limits of existing paradigms to address the challenge of White supremacy. We introduce transnationalism as an important theoretical perspective with which to conceptualize global racisms, and identify White racial affect, intersectionality, and allyship as three key domains of antiracist action research. Finally, we suggest three steps for sharpening counseling psychologists’ approaches to social justice: rejecting racial progress narratives, engaging in social justice-oriented practice with White clients, and centering White supremacy as a key problem for the field of counseling psychology and allied helping professions.

“…The application of CBT interacts with both the therapist's and the client's cultural and economic realities. To provide culturally competent care, mental health professionals must be sensitive to cultural and economic realities and their own biases (Sue, 2011). It is important to create an environment that is welcoming.…”

A comprehensive review of the literature on clinical work with African American youth with cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) is presented. The strengths and limitations of CBT in relation to this population are outlined. Although CBT shows promise in helping, research on the efficacy and effectiveness of CBT in this group is lacking. Se presenta una reseña exhaustiva de la literatura sobre trabajo clínico con jóvenes Afroamericanos usando terapia cognitiva conductual (TCC). Se perfilan los puntos fuertes y las limitaciones de la TCC en relación a esta población. A pesar de que la TCC muestra signos prometedores para servir de ayuda, no hay suficiente investigación sobre la eficacia y efectividad de la TCC en este grupo.

“…For example, Sue (2011) stated that "people are multidimensional in that they are composed of an interactive cognitive dimension, an affective dimension, a behavioral dimension, a spiritual/moral dimension, and so on." (p. 420).…”

“…Through identifying and working with this Internal work ↔ External antiracist action dialectic, the group has actually experienced cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual movement toward a greater desire to engage in action, reflecting the multidimensional nature of dialectical movement proposed by Sue (2011). Cognitively, members were able to name some of the four White fears that Sue proposes as barriers to the dialectical process.…”

This rejoinder provides a response to reactions by Ponterotto, Sue, and Toporek to the White dialectics framework presented in Todd and Abrams's article. The present response focuses on incorporating multidimensionality, the multilevel nature of context, and the potential for transformation in the White dialectics framework. The authors expand future directions for research and present a recent example of the application of the White dialectics framework to antiracist work with women from a local community.
