First published 2010
Proclaiming that feminist therapy is not only for women, clinical/ forensic psychologist Brown (in private practice, Seattle) describes a therapeutic approach that seeks to empower clients while still influencing mainstream practice. She treats its emphasis on equalitarian relationships; theoretical interpretations of power in the biological, intrapsychic, and interpersonal realms; the therapeutic process in this multicultural and global framework; its evidence base; and future developments. The book includes a glossary of key terms and suggested readings.
