Description
Intersectionality in the Arts Psychotherapies explores how clinical thinking and practice can be informed by social and political frameworks that acknowledge intersectionality. By reflecting on their own identity and professional knowledge, creative therapists address both practical work with clients and the theory behind these therapeutic practices. This book challenges readers to consider their own position as practitioners through a call to reflexivity. It demonstrates the need for embedding knowledge of intersectionality in the profession at large, drawing on diverse perspectives across the arts psychotherapies. Experienced practitioners share their insights on how structures of power, privilege and prejudice influence practice and outcomes. Through its chapters, this book develops thinking on intersectional identities and highlights the importance of contextualising clinical experience within a broader social and political framework.
