Focusing on the breadth of issues that affect psychotherapy with
African American women, this unique volume is designed to help
clinicians develop a broader understanding of what is useful and
what is problematic when applying psychodynamic concepts to their
clients. From an array of seasoned clinicians, chapters present
innovative and creative reformulations of theory and technique that
build upon and challenge existing models. Issues addressed include
the psychological dilemmas confronting diverse African American
women as they negotiate a society that is hostile to them on
multiple levels; how ethnicity, class, gender, sexual orientation
and other differences come into play within the therapeutic dyad;
and approaches to unraveling the complex interplay of
sociopolitical, intrapsychic, and interpersonal concerns in
treatment. Filled with illustrative clinical material and pointers
for practice, the volume will enhance the cultural competence of
mental heath practitioners and students across a range of
disciplines. Winner (Chapter 5)--Association for Women in
Psychology 10th Annual Women of Color Psychologies Award
