    En los Estados Unidos la profesión de consejería no ha seguido el ritmo de los cambios demográficos étnicos de la sociedad. Como tal, las comunidades de color en los Estados Unidos requieren el apoyo de consejerosque son aliados. Los aliados son personas de grupos socio-políticas dominantes que buscan poner fin a la opresión.En este estudio se utilizó grounded theory para examinar la experiencia de seis consejeros que fueron identificados como aliados a las comunidades de color.Basándose en los resultados de este estudio, discutimos que los aliados tienen conocimiento de uno mismo, conocimiento personal de y la conexión a las comunidades de color, las habilidades de establecimiento de una relación y participan en conversaciones críticas,y participan en la acción en nombre de sus estudiantes

As such, communities of color in the U.S. require the support of counselor allies. Allies are people from dominant socio-political groups who seek to end oppression. This study used grounded theory to examine the experience of six counselors who were identified asallies to communitiesof color. Based on the results of this study,we arguethat allies possess self-awareness, personal knowledge of and connection to communitiesof color, and the skills of rapport building and engaging in critical conversations.They also participatein action on behalf of their students. Implications of these findings for counselor who seek to be allies to communities of color are provided
