Authors from a variety of disciplines and theoretical orientations combine feminism with psychoanalytic and postmodern theories to celebrate diversity in gender and sexual experience. This collection of lesbian-affirmative writings addresses transference and countertransference, gender subjectivities, privilege and racism, therapist homophobia, and violence in lesbian relationships.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In the past decade, psychoanalysis has undergone changes in clinical theory that have led to views on human sexuality that are less focused on what is normal and therapy practices that resist attempts to fit individuals into prescribed developmental models. Lesbians, Feminism, and Psychoanalysis presents a variety of backgrounds (psychiatry, psychology, and social work), analytic training (formal institute training, study groups, supervision), and theoretical perspectives (self-psychology, object relations, relational psychoanalysis, feminist theory, queer theory, postmodernism, Lacanian theory) unified by the healing power of psychoanalytically informed theory and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The book is divided into three sectionsCommunity: Personal and Political, Ongoing Clinical Issues, and New Thinking on Sexuality and Gender, addressing lesbian tomboy development, the queering of relational psychoanalysis, how attachment theory and intersubjectivity can contribute to newer gender theory, and including:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e interviews with lesbian psychoanalytic foremothers Joanne Spina, Lee Crespi, and Judy Levitz \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Dr. Darla Bjork’s account of her journey to becoming an openly lesbian therapist \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e contrasting views on transference and countertransference from gay and lesbian therapists \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e and much more!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eLesbians, Feminism, and Psychoanalysis: The Second Wave is an essential practical resource for clinicians and a vital classroom tool for academics working in psychology, social work, psychoanalysis, gender and women’s studies, queer studies, and lesbian and gay studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54257333764440,"sku":"9781560232803","price":179.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781560232803.jpg?v=1778731269","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/lesbians-feminism-and-psychoanalysis","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
