How can we apply fourth wave feminist and intersectional theories in therapy?

Feminist intersectional therapy can be an essential tool for clinicians struggling through new territories of suffering under today's oppressive cultural, social, and political norms and systems. Feminist Intersectional Therapy: Fourth Wave Clinical Applications is a foundational text that provides an advanced understanding of feminist and intersectional theories, and how they can be applied within the mental health disciplines. Editors Joanne Jodry and Kathleen McCleskey collaborate with other educators and clinical practitioners from a range of identities, professions, and theoretical orientations. Going beyond a single rigid framework, the author collective builds on feminist theory's foundational roots, infused with intersectional theory, to conceptualize multiple, flexible clinical applications with original models and creative techniques.

This book addresses fundamental topics across all clinical mental health disciplines, from ethics and human development to various clinical modalities-individual, relational, family, group therapy, and clinical supervision. Specialty areas that are covered include spiritual issues, crisis intervention and trauma, substance use, career counseling, and sexual topics. It also discusses specific individuals with diverse identities-children, adolescents, and older adults; disabled individuals; BIPOC individuals; individuals with nondominant gender and affectional identities; and those from other oppressed and privileged identity groups. Lastly, this book explores future directions for feminist intersectional therapy, from higher education pedagogy to research.
