Integrating Implicit Bias Into Counselor Education

Abstract

The author reviews the empirical and theoretical literature on implicit bias as it relates to counselor education. Counselor educators can integrate implicit bias into the concepts of multicultural knowledge, awareness, and skill. Knowledge about implicit bias includes its theoretical explanation, measurement, and impact on counseling. Awareness of implicit bias requires specialized assessment independent of self‐reported bias. Skills related to implicit bias include intentionality in thought and behavior and long‐term commitment to changing biased thought patterns.
