Integrative Perinatal Counselling
This book presents “the Becoming Model”, an integrative perinatal counselling model that provides a practical clinical framework to therapists working with those for whom the question of becoming a parent seems central. Becoming a parent changes your identity, household, worldviews, relationships, priorities and previous life goals. Based on the notion that one does not become a mother or a father overnight, rather that it is a process of “becoming”, this model provides a roadmap for therapists (psychoanalytic, behavioural, humanistic, integrative and others) looking to understand and explore their client’s experience of this transitional journey through talk-therapy. It defines th...
Reimagining Race in Psychology
This important book brings together race, mental health and applied psychology, unpacking these areas from differing perspectives and offering new insights in support of training and development of practice. The ability to work with issues of race and intersectionality within psychology is vital. Contributors with experience in counselling psychology and applied psychology from across varied social contexts and professional settings reframe and challenge familiar concepts such as movements to decolonise the curriculum, psychology and therapy. The chapters offer clinical vignettes, lived experiences and reflective questions to provoke the reader’s thinking and engage with curiosity and sens...
The Castration Complex
This book illustrates that the Castration Complex and the question of the distinction between the sexes are enmeshed in psychoanalytic theories. The subjective negotiation of this distinction impacts the future sexual positions taken up (or not) by the subject, indicating that human sexuality is by no means a given or a natural occurrence in psychoanalysis. Engagement with the psychoanalytic theory of castration provides the reader with a different perspective on the current society’s insistence on gradually dissolving the differences between the sexes. For Freud, castration complex is the key to understanding the psychical consequences of the anatomical distinction between the sexes. For Lacan, castration introduces the subject to his/her very existence as a sexed being. Mou Sultana illustrates how these two revolutionary theorists came to such conclusions by close reading of the core texts, interpreting them and highlighting their relevance both within and outside the clinic of modern times.
Through the Gender Lens
As its name suggests, this book has viewed certain social practices, beliefs and phenomena from a gender perspective—perspectives of the male, female and the third gender. Since there are essential differences between the ways the people of different sexual categories—those whose orientations match with their sex assigned t\at birth and those whose do not—are socialized and trained, people develop different perspectives of the same social phenomenon and react accordingly. Furthermore, they experience the same things as poverty and natural calamities, for example in different ways. This is not to say that gender identities are not wrought by class/caste and other socially produced differences. The volume explores and questions the different forms that the gender differences, twisted by class/caste and rural/urban divides, take. It exposes the different ways in which gender difference affect our known world of family, health care, political rights, rapidly changing economic environment and entertainment, as also the lesser known world of folk lore and tribal land rights.
