This challenging and insightful work wrestles with the difficult
treatment problems confronting both culturally and socially
oppressed clients and psychotherapists in a society where diversity
has often been resisted. The authors question long-held assumptions
within the profession and urge recognition of new ethnic, racial,
and gender realities which significantly impact therapies.
Recognizing the implications of cultural diversity in the society,
the authors-clinicians seek to broaden health professionals'
awareness of clients' needs and to promote the requisite empathy.
They describe how ethnic, racial, and gender issues affect
psychotherapy's progress and outcomes. Specific concerns about such
key factors as self-esteem, gender roles, and social regard are
addressed in a context supportive of diversity enhancement rather
than one seeking uniformity. Case studies offer highly valuable
resource material and, through the authors' explication, insights
into their challenging perspectives on this highly important health
service.
