| Abstract: | Power is a central dynamic in multicultural encounters. Yet many people, especially counsellors, are reluctant to discuss their experiences with power and what it means to them. As a result, power remains an often unspoken, disturbing issue in multicultural counselling and counsellor education. This article addresses this silence by: a) clarifying the relationship between power and cultural racism; b) discussing what counsellors need to know about power; c) presenting an experiential  powerlab that counsellor educators and trainers may use to explore various aspects of power; and d) suggesting a processing format, issues and supportive resources for debriefing this exercise. |
