Interventions for Anti-Oppressive Clinical Supervision

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Peters and Luke have transcended layers of colonization and oppression to name the oppressive structures within our pedagogical traditions, articulating anti-oppression as a transtheoretical means of re-organizing counselor supervision. In this book, they articulate the Anti-Oppression Supervision Model (AOSM) as the foundation of this new supervisory praxis, and then, with each chapter addressing one tenet of the AOSM, they present various supervisor interventions that meet that tenet. This book represents a new wave of anti-oppression in counseling; as new clinicians are trained using anti-oppression, it will be easier for them to practice anti-oppression in their counseling and in their communities. We can now become the change we have been waiting for."

"This book remains a resounding answer to the complicated dilemma of unbinding from oppression and power hierarchies that still unfortunately underlie supervision practices. In vexing sociopolitical times facing multiple health disciplines, this long-awaited collection of voices is a vision of the future of supervision, but more importantly, it is the hope we need to sustain us."
