Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Traditional wisdom dictates that the values and codes governing psychotherapy are, if not self-evident, at least beyond question: therapy must be conducted in an atmosphere of detachment, objectivity, and strict separation of personal and professional agendas between patient and therapist. But what is the human cost of these values, and do they really contribute to healing?" "In When Boundaries Betray Us, feminist theologian and ethicist Carter Heyward delivers a lightning bolt reality check to this prevailing system of values. Drawing on her own traumatic experiences in therapy, Heyward exposes how the rigidly applied boundaries of the professional relationship can be fear-based, artificial constructs that stand in the way of true healing and our right-relation to one another as people. She shows how, in our hetero/sexist, patriarchal society, women especially must enter into healing on common ground, creating a mutually empowering experience for therapist and patient." "Recounting her eighteen months in therapy in an engaging and honest narrative, Heyward chronicles the life of a turbulent relationship - from moments of deep personal discovery to a shared experience of spiritual connection to a growing hostility and an abrupt severing of relations. She clearly illustrates how the intermingling of personal experience and emotion between therapist and patient is both inevitable and essential to the development of a truly trustworthy relationship. And, conversely, she shows how traditional boundaries are merely a pretense and can in and of themselves lead to emotional and spiritual wounding." "In a controversial break with many other feminists over boundaries in therapy, Heyward calls for a new form of healing in community - within the nurturing, mutually beneficial framework of fully developed relationships involving mutual risk. And she steps back from her own experience to pinpoint ongoing issues of power, community, and liberation that dramatically affect our ability to heal." "When Boundaries Betray Us is both a personal story and a challenging vision of what true therapy - and true healing - can be. It is must reading for all therapists and religious professionals, for those in therapy, and for anyone who wants to find the way to true well-being."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: Previous principles of hierarchy, inequality, and duty that defined the relationships between husband, wife, and children have been challenged and often replaced by more fluid bonds of equality, intimacy, emotional self-disclosure, communication, and mutual trust. The key question that has emerged for our times, then, is how exactly do families sustain genuine mutuality, democracy, and strong relationships? Figuring out good answers to this question is the major theme of this book and the origin of the title Mutuality Matters.

Do you accept a gift that a patient brings to make up for causing you some inconvenience?

This authoritative, practical book uses compelling case vignettes to show how a wide range of boundary questions arise and can be responsibly resolved as part of the process of therapy.

Book excerpt: If the aim of psychotherapy is to alleviate suffering, then the measure of its validity must be the extent to which it does or does not achieve that goal. But who decides whether suffering has been alleviated, or whether the well-being of the client has been promoted? On what basis are such judgements made? The majority of literature on the effectiveness of therapy is written by therapists. This book, written by a client, challenges the power of theory, and in so doing presents an appeal for greater sensitivity, a critical view and better practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heightened awareness of the problem of sexual abuse has led to deep anxiety over adults touching children—in nearly any context. Though our society has moved toward increasingly strict enforcement of this taboo, studies have shown that young children need regular human contact, and the benefits of breastfeeding have been widely extolled. Exploring the complicated history of love, desire, gender, sexuality, parenthood, and inequality, Erotic Attunement probes the disquieting issue of how we can draw a clear line between natural affection toward children and perverse exploitation of them. Cristina L. H. Traina demonstrates that we cannot determine what is wrong about sexual abuse without first understanding what is good about appropriate sensual affection. Pondering topics such as the importance of touch in nurturing children, the psychology of abuse and victimhood, and recent ideologies of motherhood, she argues that we must expand our philosophical and theological language of physical love and make a distinction between sexual love and erotic love. Taking on theological and ethical arguments over the question of sexuality between unequals, she arrives at the provocative conclusion that it can be destructive to completely bar eroticism from these relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the clinical and ethical contributions of Muriel Dimen, Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble goes beyond the established consensus that sexual boundary violations (SBV) constitute a serious breach of professional ethics, in order to explore the cultural and historical implications of their chronic persistence. In Rotten Apples and Ambivalence, her last major publication, Dimen (2016) maintained that "the phenomenon of sexual transgression between analyst and patient . . . is insufficiently addressed so long as it is only deemed psychological." In responding to and developing Dimen’s argument, the distinguished contributors to this volume bring the discussion of SBV to a new level of ethical rigor and depth, challenging the psychoanalytic profession to go beyond its codified complacency. This collection shatters normative professional guidelines by focusing on the complicity and hypocrisy of professional groups, while at the same time raising the taboo subject of the ordinary practicing clinician’s unconscious professional ambivalence and potentially "rogue" sexual subjectivity. Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble uncovers the roots of SBV in the institutional origins and history of psychoanalysis as a profession. Exploring Dimen’s concept of the psychoanalytic "primal crime," which is in some ways constitutive of the profession, and the inherently unstable nature of interpersonal and professional "boundaries," Social Aspects of Sexual Boundary Trouble breaks new ground in the continuing struggle of psychoanalysis to reconcile itself with its liminal social status and its origins as a subversive, morally ambiguous practice. It will be highly relevant to specialists in psychoanalysis, psychotherapy, critical theory, feminist studies and social thought.

Master clinician Karen J. Maroda adds an important dimension to the psychodynamic literature by exploring the role of both clients' and therapists' emotional experiences in the process of therapy. Vivid case examples illustrate specific techniques for becoming more attuned to one's own experience of a client; offering direct feedback and self-disclosure in the service of treatment goals; and managing intense feelings and conflict in the relationship. Maroda clearly distinguishes between therapeutic and nontherapeutic ways to work with emotion in this candid and instructive guide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By selecting as her focus 'mutuality,' Nothwehr brings to the fore an issue of perennial importance in Christian social ethics, that of power. As she shows, feminist theology invites religious ethicists to reconceive normative questions of power from the vantage point of its dynamic, mutual sharing, a sharing that encompasses not only individual relations, but society and the natural world. She also demonstrates how attention to relations of mutuality sheds light on the spectrum of classical Christian theological and moral topics, revealing dimensions of our traditions that standard assumptions about power as domination tend to obscure." --Christine Firer Hinze, Associate Professor of Theology, Marquette UniversityThis book allows 'mutuality' to take its rightful place along with 'love' and 'justice' in Christian social ethics. Written with great clarity, with excellent scholarship, and with the thinking of key historical figures in mind, this book focuses on the thinking of four contemporary Christian feminists--Beverly Wildung Harrison, Carter Heyward, Elizabeth Johnson, and Rosemary Radford Ruether--to show that 'mutuality' is at the heart of ethics. But it does more. It shows that 'mutuality' at the heart of the human, at the heart of the divine, and at the heart of the meeting between the two." --John J. Shea, visiting Associate Professor of Pastoral Care and Counseling, Boston CollegeDawn Nothwehr employs a corrective category, 'mutuality.' At first blush the term would seem too tender and nebulous to address the splits in our consciousness, but this theologian brings well-informed care to its definition. It becomes in her hands a critical tool which can do healing surgery on many foundational categories of Catholic theology, and indeed on much of modern thinking beyond the pale of Catholicism. Mutuality calls attention to the essential interdependency of all that is in our cosmos." --Daniel C. Maguire, Professor of Theological Ethics Marquette University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In consumer economies, success has increasingly been defined in terms of material attainment and the achievement of status. This model of 'the good life' and its formulas for success ignore the haunting possibility that one may not succeed and as a result be deemed 'a failure'. How to be a Failure and Still Live Well explores that often neglected theme of failure, not just as the opposite of achievement, but also, and more importantly, how it has been conflated with loss: that which haunts all transient, mortal human experience. Understanding loss as a form of failure affects our ability to cope with the everyday losses that permeate existence as a result of the natural processes of ageing, death, and decay. Engaging with loss and thinking about what it inevitability means for our lives and commitments, allows different values to emerge than those connected to success as attainment. Relationships, spontaneity, and generosity are explored as qualities that arise from taking seriously our vulnerability and that form the basis for richer accounts of what it might mean to 'live well'.
