Abstract
AbstractThe recent emphasis on racial unrest and systemic inequality perpetuated by COVID‐19 has made the counseling profession seek more appropriate methods for clients, especially with Black males. Epigenetics, a science examining how behaviors and environment intersect to impact gene expression, could serve as this tool. This article advocates for providing therapy through an epigenetics framework, integrated with existential–humanism to give counselors the tools necessary to work with contemporary Black male clients.
