ABSTRACT

In Anti-Oppressive Counseling and Psychotherapy, Jason D. Brown examines the impact of structural inequality on mental health and provides a framework for an anti-oppressive practice that recognizes privilege and challenges systemic barriers. Incorporating theory, research, and detailed case studies, readers will learn how to implement intervention techniques that take into consideration the diverse social identities of both therapist and client. The text also teaches students and practicing psychotherapists how to use anti-oppressive practices to effect social change within their communities and society at large.
