Liberation psychology is an approach that aims to understand
wellbeing within the context of relationships of power and
oppression, and the sociopolitical structure in which these
relationships exist. Liberation Practices: Towards Emotional
Wellbeing Through Dialogue explores how wellbeing can be enhanced
through dialogue which challenges oppressive social, relational and
cultural conditions and which can lead to individual and collective
liberation. Taiwo Afuape and Gillian Hughes have brought together a
variety of contributors, from a range of mental health professions
and related disciplines, working in different settings, with
diverse client groups. Liberation Practices is a product of
multiple dialogues about liberation practices, and how this
connects to personal and professional life experience. Contributors
offer an overview of liberation theories and approaches, and
through dialogue they examine liberatory practices to enhance
emotional wellbeing, drawing on examples from a range of creative
and innovative projects in the UK and USA. This book clearly
outlines what liberation practices might look like, in the context
of the historical development of liberation theory, and the current
political and cultural context of working in the mental health and
psychology field. Liberation Practices will have a broad
readership, spanning clinical psychology, psychotherapy and social
work.
