Feminist Family Therapy: Empowerment in Social Context (Psychology of Women)

This volume offers case-based discussions that address race, gender and class as they effect the personal problems of individual families. While keeping an explicit focus on clinical work, the book highlights power differentials in families and larger systems. Notable authors examine family issues such as couple intimacy, divorce, migration, lesbian mother families and parent-child conflict. The book should interest therapists who have been working with an individual focus to include feminist-family-therapy in their work.
