Talking About Families

This journal explores four different themes in relation to families. The first grapples with the complexity of engaging with family histories across generations when dispossession and injustice is a part of these histories. The second consists of moving and thoughtful accounts by counsellors about how legacies from their families of origin in relation to mental health issues have led to creative developments in their own work. The third sheds new light on the experience of refugee families and poses many questions in relation to how we as health professionals can respond to those who have to flee their countries and leave their homes and family members behind them. And the final theme conveys some of the delights, struggles and learnings involved in creating gay and lesbian, anti-nuclear families. In the process, these stories offer new perspectives on relationships and the making of family that have widespread implications. This collection of papers will be of relevance to anyone working with families - in all their diversity.

This edition emerged from a desire to explore new ways of thinking about education and schooling. The articles included raise a variety of challenging questions and provide some practical and exciting possibilities for action. Questions considered include: Given that schooling plays such a large role in the lives of children and their parents, what implications does an understanding of the dynamics of educational practice have for therapists, counsellors and social workers in their work with families? What are the effects of current practices on individual children, on parents, families, and on whole communities? How does schooling fit into the larger structures of class, race, gender and sexuality? What difference would it make if we applied an ethic of care to our thinking about education? How do concepts of accountability relate to adults' relationships with young people, both inside and outside of school?

Her-story in the making: Therapy with women who were sexually abused in childhood
- by
Amanda Kamsler
| |
This item can be downloaded once purchased.
| | Description:
This chapter discusses some of the problematic aspects of the ‘traditional’ cultural stories about: the long-term effects on women of child sexual assault, and therapy approaches for working with these women when they identify difficulties in their lives. Some alternative ideas are outlined about how a therapist can participate with women clients who experienced sexual assault in childhood, to enable them to go beyond the oppression of the dominant, pathologising stories they have about themselves so that they may begin to have access to new, empowering stories about their own resourcefulness and survival.
