Women with Visible and Invisible Disabilities: Multiple Intersections, Multiple Issues, Multiple Therapies

Editat de Martha Banks, Ellyn Kaschak
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 oct 2003
This thoughtful collection addresses the issues faced by women with disabilities, examines the social construction of disability, and makes suggestions for the development and modification of culturally relevant therapy to meet the needs of disabled women. Written in an accessible style with a minimum of jargon, this book provides clinical material from the perspectives of psychotherapists, clients, personal assistants, and health administrators. Women with Visible and Invisible Disabilities also highlights the importance of considering age, ethnicity, and sexual orientation in its examination of feminist approaches to assessment, psychotherapy, disability management (coping), and discusses how the Americans with Disabilities Act impacts employment and education for women.

Recenzii

A must-read for every student...Should be included in the library of every clinician and researcher. A comprehensive book about a long-overlooked topic that affects many women and their families. The editors have opened our eyes to the issues and provided realistic and practical solutions. -Gail E. Wyatt, PhD, Professor and Director, Sexual Health Program; Associate Director, UCLA AIDS Institute; Editor, Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology Journal
Highly Recommended! This book contains much valuable information that will lead to greater sensitivity in service delivery to this neglected group of women. Readers will learn about the wide range of disabilities these women manifest and about the variety of treatment approaches and health promotion programs that validate positive views of disability while at the same time encouraging healthy living in this special population. -Irene W. Leigh, PhD, Professor, Department of Psychology, Gallaudet University
What an interesting book! This book will fill in many of the gaps in existing literature because of its sensitive approach to ethnic and sexual minorities who have disabilities. My consciousness was raised by nearly every chapter. I highly recommend this book to therapists, policymakers, students, faculty, and women with disabilities themselves. - Joan C. Chrisler, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Connecticut College
Bravo! Provides powerful and direct answers to the questions, concerns, and challenges all women with disabilities experience. The voices in this book are speaking loud and clear to a wide range of readers and audiences...Centered on the core principle that quality of life revolves around one's mental health, a sense of strength, and resiliency. -Theresa M. Rankin, BA, NCE, National Community Educator, Brain Injury Services, Inc; MidAtlantic Traumatic Brain Injury Consortium; Fairhaven Institute for Brain Injury/University of Wisconsin-Scott
