Lesbian and Gay Couples is an important addition to the literature on working with same-sex couples. Students and practitioners alike will find the depth of research in this text helpful in learning about alternative relationships, lifestyles, and how to support healthy same-sex relationships. Issues covered include relationship counseling, dating, parenting, recognizing intimate partner violence in same-sex couples, non-monogamy, marriage, and the importance of recognizing heterosexism (the system of bias and discrimination toward same-sex couples) in society and in oneself. The author believes that by acknowledging the existence of heterosexism, readers take the first step in diminishing its influence on the lives of their clients. Lesbian and Gay Couples is an important work for any practitioner's bookshelf.
Ski Hunter (PhD, Ohio State University) is professor of social work at the University of Texas at Arlington. She has contributed over twenty scholarly articles to the field of social work, and Lesbian and Gay Couples is her ninth book. In addition to her academic and clinical work, Professor Hunter has done many workshops on the lives of lesbian and gay persons-workshops she greatly enjoys because her audience members connect to a community that was often neglected in their traditional studies. Professor Hunter continues to be passionately dedicated to the advancement of civil rights for the gay and lesbian community.
