Conclusion: Other Women Theorists and Themes
This necessary and long-overdue text details the contributions of women scholars whose collective voice is often absent from discussions of clinical theories. Bohecker, LaMantia, and Wagner have contributed a unique framing of theories developed by women, providing the reader a window into whom the theorist was and the context in which the theory was developed and has been received. With clinicians working with diverse clients of multiple and intersecting experiences, this text is a must-read for expanding their clinical approaches.
