Product Description
Product Description
Following the success of Pink Therapy (1996 Open University Press) as a practical guide for therapists, counsellors and others in related professions working with lesbian, gay and bisexual clients in affirmative ways, this volume is the first to address how this can be approached from ten of the major therapeutic perspectives. Each approach is discussed with regard to its historical and theoretical relationship to these client groups and how the approach can be beneficial or negative. Guidelines for using the perspective supportively or practically are given, along with references for further study. The volume marks an important step in the dialogue between theoretical approaches and in the future development of, and debate about, these increasingly important fields in contemporary therapy.
From the Publisher
Margaret Newman, Jansen Newman Institute
"This 'affirmative' perspective of different psychotherapeutic modalities will enhance the learning of students in counselling and psychotherapy programs, their teachers and practising professionals. It complements beautifully the integrative approach upon which our programs in this field are based. Our students and faculty will, I am sure, be eager to learn from it" - Margaret Newman, Jansen Newman Institute

First Sentence
Any attempt to assess Jungian psychotheraphy from a gay-affirmative perspective must take into account the complexity of Jung's own attitudes towards sexuality and gender, and separate these to some extent both from the theory which he developed and the methodology of analytical psychology as practised in the consulting room today.

This book represents a valuable contribution to the literature on appropriate, effective and ethical therapeutic practice with lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) clients and, in my view, is the best of the three books in this series produced by Dominic Davies and Charles Neal. Although the book aims to explore the overlap between various models of therapy and LGB-affirmative practice, most contributors explain their theoretical approaches so clearly and concisely that the text also constitutes a useful introduction to these approaches. No longer will practitioners within any of the main theoretical models be able to justify applying their approach to LGB clients in unconsidered, acontextual or pathologising ways on the grounds that their approach cannot accommodate the challenges of LGB sexuality. This book cogently and persuasively demonstrates how this accommodation can be achieved for the benefit of clients and the enrichment of the therapeutic domain.

Another very well written and informative book from Pink Therapy.
Excellent contribuions from some well respected therapists, from differing schools of thought. They include; Analytical psychology, CBT, Existential-phenomenological, NLP, PCT, TA and psychoanalytic.
An interesting and thought provoking read, as well as being an essential resource for students or counsellors in general. There are clinical examples which are helpful, and each chapter is very well referenced to allow ease of further reading or research.
