Jordan | | Abstract: | A cultural context that has placed a heavy emphasis on individualism, the "separate self," and the exercise of "power over" others has shaped models of clinical practice. Strategies of disconnection are thus inherent in many traditional practices of therapy and recent changes in the health care delivery system are producing additional stresses in the therapist-client relationship. A relational model, in contrast, emphasizes increasing relational awareness and the importance of context and diversity in people's lives. | | Order # | Price | Pub.
