Clinical psychology has traditionally ignored or marginalized
gender issues. It tends to see the individual subject as gender
neutral, and ignores many aspects of the individual, both as client
and as practitioner. "Gender Issues in Clinical Psychology" argues
that if clinical psychology is to work for both men and women,
gender issues must be acknowledged and resolved. The contributors,
leading researchers and practitioners in the field of clinical
psychology, look at the position of women and men as practitioners,
as objects of the scientific gaze, and as clients of the clinical
psychologist. They argue that, by ignoring gender, clinical
psychology perpetuates gender stereotypes and the oppression of
women. Focusing on different aspects of clinical practice and
organization, including feminist therapy, the contributors
demonstrate that it is vital that gender issues are incorporated
into clinical research and practice and offer examples of theory
and practice which do not marginalize the needs of women. This book
should be of interest to professionals in training and practice,
undergraduates and academics; clinical psychology, psychiatry,
health and gender studies.
