Sample text

Smith a counselor who adheres to the MCC model and identifies as affirming of LGB identities, what is missing from Nichole’s narrative is fundamental to understanding the deficits of her MCC training. Absent within her narrative is acknowledgement or understanding of SJ oriented constructs like the discourse of heteronormativity, modern heterosexism, heterosexual privilege, and microaggressions.
