ED PS7240

This course will examine the feminist and multicultural underpinnings of feminist therapy; the formation of a respectful, egalitarian client-counselor relationship; and how to conduct sociopolitical analysis of the issues clients bring to counselors. Feminist therapy is inherently political as it examines the intersection of gender with race/ethnicity, class, disability, sexuality, age, physical/psychological/mental status, and other aspects of people's lives. The course will include readings and discussion, lecture, film, personal exploration and action, and group process.
