<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This book explores how social power differences influence the therapy partnership. It offers research and clinical examples to help therapists become aware of privilege, and take steps to address power-related issues in therapy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This integrative work will help clinicians address unique challenges that arise when privilege and power differences--often unrecognized--enter the therapy room. It focuses on four core clinical situations: when therapist and patient have similar levels of social power, when either therapist or patient has more privilege relative to the other, and when both therapist and patient have similar levels of non privilege.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Writing from a sophisticated feminist ethics viewpoint, Fors (Univ. of Tromsø, Norway) offers a 'matrix of relative privilege' as a conceptual model designed to untangle and heighten awareness surrounding the subtle cultural blindness affecting psychotherapy... Recommended." --<i>Choice</i> <p/> "To ignore power and privilege disparities in psychotherapy is to effectively ignore their existence within the broader societal and global context. Malin Fors' detailed examination of power and privilege dynamics allows readers to learn not only what the literature says, but also to hear firsthand accounts of Fors' experiences both in and out of the therapeutic dyad. Lastly, Fors' leaves space to discuss where we can go from here and reminds the reader that this book is not intended as a manual or set of instructions, rather an incomplete, ever-evolving grammar geared at upheaving clinical blind spots, and raising awareness around power and privilege disparities within psychotherapy." --APA Division 44 Newsletter<br>
