• Feminist Therapy is a sociopolitical movement in treatment to provide support and advocacy for people who have experienced oppression, it is not just for women who have experienced sexism. Therefore, feminist therapists are open with clients about their values and do not take a neutral stance. What kinds of benefits and setbacks could this have on clients?
• Both Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Narrative Therapy ascribe to a client-as-expert approach to therapy. Briefly in your own words, describe what this means and how it may impact clients.
