Expectations and Preferences for Counseling and Psychotherapy in Native Americans

We provide a broad overview of the research on expectations and preferences for counseling and psychotherapy with Native Americans and identify a critical lack of research in this area. We conclude that increased research could improve the effectiveness of counseling and psychotherapy for Native peoples. For example, understanding and engaging patients’ expectations and preferences would likely lead to increased retention and satisfaction. Finally, we suggest that a Native American clinical practice network might be one way to generate clinical and research knowledge in the area of expectations and preferences for psychotherapy and counseling

Occasionally, He’s a Somniaticidal Maniac: Stephen Graham Jones Reclaims Home and History

Environmental activism and preservation of the land, acknowledgement of our shared responsibilities to the planet, to unci maka, to Mother Earth, to our home; these are obligations of love we as human beings embrace with devoted regularity. But what happens when we look at stories that might destroy the world entirely, might remold, reshape, reclaim and remake (or perhaps even “rename” in a restorative move) our histories and homes? What is the reception for works that defy the expectations of devotion to the environment in Native American literature one genre at a time? That address historic erasure by reshaping the future? This paper will examine some of Stephen Graham Jones’s prolific works, including Sterling City, “How Billy Hanson Destroyed the Earth, and Everyone on It,” as well as Chapter Six, all published in a variety of platforms and collections. In each instance, the worlds as home and future history described are decidedly reclaimed, perhaps for good reasons, and perhaps for not so good reasons

How quickly they forget : American Indians in European film, 1962--1976

This study will examine representations of American Indians in Cold War German and Italian cinema. While the widely read works of Karl May provided literary models, it was through the medium of film that European screenwriters and directors furthered a fantastic relationship to Native American people. This dissertation will examine in particular how the cinematic presence of American Indians in German and Italian films during the Cold War period represented the differing needs of many of the European people who had recently suffered defeat at the hands of the American-led Allies. In the end, Europe\u27s post-war turn to the left failed to provide a viable counter-narrative to a legacy of 19th-century exoticism.
