Abstract

AbstractBlack men regard their mothers as the source of primary support and may benefit from having counselors incorporate their mothers into the counseling process. In this study, the researchers attempted to understand Black men's lived experiences and the impact of their mother's influence upon their wellbeing. Drawing on interviews with 10 Black men, the researchers excavated 5 themes related to development and wellness of Black men as clients. The researchers discussed the results with implications for counselors, along with current study's limitations.
