Özet:

Counseling discipline has focused on multiculturalism for the last 40 years. As a result of this process, multicultural counseling process has been conceptualized, and many theories and models have been developed in this regard. The most widely used multiculturalism models in Turkey as well as in the world consist of knowledge, awareness, and skill components. However, it has been observed that although many counselors working in the field are relatively competent in cultural knowledge and awareness levels, they need more support in terms of skills. To meet this need in the field, in this study, the broaching method, which is recommended for school counselors to effectively deal with cultural issues, is conceptualized. Continuum of broaching styles and counselor characteristics at different competency levels are described. The study includes scenarios with cultural issues that school counselors may frequently encounter and broaching statements that they can use in these situations. These scenarios include as many current and local cultural examples as possible. Finally, suggestions to counselors and counselor educators working in the field are presented to the reader.
