About this product

Product Information

There is an increasing awareness of the impact of individual factors on therapeutic work, both with clients and with their counsellors in supervision, but the influence of social contexts has been less discussed. This text provides practical information about supervising specific types of clients in specific organizational settings. The first section addresses four aspects of the individual - race, gender, disability and sexual orientation - exploring their influence on the therapeutic relationship and the supervision of trainee and experienced counsellors. The second part assesses the impact of the organizations where counselling takes place - how different kinds of settings affect work with clients and thus the work of supervision. By highlighting context as a potential source of difficulty for the client, the book encourages trainees and supervisors to look beyond the individual and avoid placing the burden of responsibility for problems on the client.
