Janessa is coming to therapy at the recommendation of her mother, who points out that she has no strong female role models at home or in her life that she can look up to. When she points this out, you begin to ask her questions about her family of origin. Questions center around power, equality, and strength. Which type of therapy may be most effective for her?
  1. Feminist therapy
  2. Cognitive behavioral
  3. Structural therapy
  4. Couples work
Explanation
Answer - A - When issues of power and strength arise, it is always best to consider feminist therapy when working with women who are dealing with issues of power and strength. That’s not to say that other therapies are not effective, but it would be critical to make sure that the client is given a lens through which to view her own situation that has been time-tested and proven with many practitioners.
