Description
This timely book explores the intersection of the Person-Centred Approach and radical political theory and activity. It examines how a critical analysis of social and political factors can inform person-centred therapy, as well as the contribution that person-centred theory and practice can make to socio-political theory and activity.
The book features an international collection of chapters offering critical analysis on topics such as class, culture, racism, sexuality, power, and feminism. It also presents a range of work involving social change as a necessary condition for therapeutic personality growth, emotional literacy, and sociotherapy.
Primarily aimed at practitioners and students of the person-centred approach with an interest in political issues, this book will also be of interest to service users, practitioners, and theorists in critical psychiatry and critical psychology looking to develop their theoretical foundations and expand their horizons.
