Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Intersectionality in the Arts Psychotherapies advocates for contextualising of clinical thinking and experience within a social and political framework that acknowledges the importance of intersectionality. Bringing reflections on their own identity and their professional knowledge to the work, creative therapists address both practical work with clients and the theory behind these therapeutic practices. A call to reflexivity allows the reader to consider their own position as a practitioner. These chapters will challenge and develop thinking on intersectional identities. Beyond the individual, the book demonstrates the need to embed knowledge of intersectionality in the profession at large. Experienced practitioners write from diverse perspectives across the arts psychotherapies, exploring how structures of power, privilege and prejudice influence practice and outcomes. Moving forward the conversation on the long called for greater consideration of identity, politics and social justice in practice, this book positions an understanding of intersectionality as critical for effective arts psychotherapy. It confronts the impact of gender, sexuality, race, age, disability and class in both typical settings for arts psychotherapy work and in the wider profession.
