Despite the increasing demand for psychotherapy among communities of color, the field of clinical psychology has not been able to adequately address the need for services and reduce existing mental health disparities in these populations. The book's editors and chapter authors aim to help to eliminate these disparities, offering this book in anticipation that it will become a framework for training clinical psychologists in providing culturally sensitive and evidence-based treatments.
The first objective of the book is to provide a state-of-the-art review of psychopathology, assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and psychotherapy outcomes across African Americans, American Indians and Alaska Natives, Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, and Hispanic Americans. The second objective is to use an evidence-based approach to examine the influence of culture in assessment, psychopathology, and treatment. Chapters in Part I address diagnosis and assessment among these populations, while chapters in Part II discuss treatments and interventions. Each part ends with a commentary article by leading scholars in the field.
With the goal of advancing the field of the clinical psychology in communities of color, this volume will be indispensable for a multidisciplinary audience conducting clinical research and providing clinical services.

His major research interests center around culture and mental health, cross-cultural psychotherapy (especially with Asians and Asian Americans), and cultural and personality factors related to career choice and work adjustment. He has served as president of APA’s Division 45 (Society for the Psychological Study of Culture, Ethnicity, and Race) as well the Asian American Psychological Association, and the Division of Counseling Psychology in the International Association of Applied Psychologists. He has served on the APA Board of Scientific Affairs, the Minority Fellowship Program Advisory Committee, and the Commission on Ethnic Minority Recruitment, Retention, and Training (CEMRRAT2) Task Force.

Buchanan, PhD, is a professor of psychology at Michigan State University and faculty affiliate of MSU’s Consortium for Multicultural Psychology Research, the Research Consortium on Gender-Based Violence, and the Center for Gender in Global Context. Her research focuses on the interplay of race, gender, victimization and a unique form of harassment called racialized sexual harassment. Related research includes the effects of cross- versus intraracial harassment on well-being, sexual harassment among Black and White military personnel, and how ancillary factors (such as organizational status and feminist ideology) influence victimization and coping responses. Examples of her work appear in Psychology of Women Quarterly, Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology, and Journal of Occupational Health Psychology. Dr. Buchanan is a fellow of the American Psychological Association and has been the recipient of several awards such as the Carolyn Payton Early Career Award and the International Coalition Against Sexual Harassment Researcher Award. Guillermo Bernal, PhD, is professor of psychology at the University of Puerto Rico and director of the Institute for Psychological Research. His work has focused on research, training, and the development of mental health services for ethno-cultural groups. His research is in efficacy trials on culturally adapted treatments for depression with Puerto Rican adolescents. He is an early contributor to the dialogue on cultural adaptations of evidence-based treatments. Since 1992, his team has generated evidence on the efficacy of culturally adapted cognitive behavior therapy and interpersonal psychotherapy, carried out translations and development of instruments, and published on factors associated to vulnerability of depression. His cultural adaptation framework has served as a guide to many in the field of psychotherapy research. Dr. Bernal is a fellow of APA Divisions 45, 12, and 27 and a member of Divisions 29 and 43. His books include Evidence-Based Psychological Practice With Ethnic Minorities: Culturally Informed Research and Clinical Strategies (with Nolan Zane and Frederick T. L.
