The Routledge International Handbook of Interracial and Intercultural Relationships and Mental Health presents critical, theoretical, empirical, and psychological accounts of intercultural intimacies.
It challenges pervasive Eurocentric discourse and ideas and offers current, scholarly, practical, equitable, global and intercultural responsive philosophies, theories, clinical frameworks and practices. Chapters in this text offer critical perspectives on the mental health and well-being of intercultural couples, inclusive of multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-faith, multi-sexual, multi-racial, multi-gendered, multi-abled couples, and their intersections. A diverse range of international contributors present an intersectional analysis of traditional and contemporary cultural ideas and relationship philosophies and explore multiple global and cultural psychologies that shape the health and well-being of intercultural couples and their families.

This handbook is essential for students, educators, mental health clinicians and researchers in counselling, psychotherapy, clinical psychology, psychiatry, and social work programs.

?This handbook marks a major achievement in extending our explorations of interracial and intercultural unions - especially in terms of the emphasis on well-being and the variable ways in which these relationships are experienced. Many studies on mixed unions are still limited by a reliance on 'classical' Western theories of intermarriage and integration. There is impressive global coverage of mixed unions, and how the specific contexts and histories of disparate societies shape how interracial and intercultural unions are perceived, experienced, and navigated. This volume will be a hugely valuable resource for researchers, teachers, and students in many disciplines.?
Miri Song, PhD, professor of sociology, University of Kent

?The Routledge International Handbook of Interracial and Intercultural Relationships and Mental Health is centered on a topic of great importance, which has been underrepresented in psychology. This comprehensive text provides a historical account of interracial and intercultural unions, and it also presents several contexts (e.g., geographical) by which to conceptualize such unions. Also, this handbook is innovative in that it examines topics such as gender, queerness, and parenting, to name but a few examples. This resource is sure to help psychologists move beyond Western, binary understanding of relationships, and it will provide helpful clinical applications to anyone supporting individuals in interracial and intercultural unions.?
Anusha Kassan, PhD, RPsych, associate professor, school and applied child psychology, University of British Columbia

?The Routledge International Handbook of Interracial and Intercultural Relationships and Mental Health provides timely insights into the multifaceted nature of interracial and intercultural relationships across the globe. Editors Raghunandan, Moodley, and Kenney, have compilated an extraordinary assemblage of critical mixed-race scholars and clinicians from around the world whose needed intersectional perspectives challenge dominant narratives of race that pathologize interracial partnerships. This handbook serves as an important resource for scholars and practitioners interested in understanding the dynamic interplay of race, culture, and identity in intimate partnership and its influence on mental wellbeing.?
Kelly Faye Jackson, MSW, PhD, co-author of Multiracial Cultural Attunement
