Socioculturally Attuned Family Therapy
Peace on Earth/War at Home
The present article discusses the role of emotions in translating critical awareness of social inequities into action. Our work is premised on the assumption that emotions play a key role in social justice work by not only fueling capacity for resistance but also hindering ability to resist injustice effectively or even prompting unwitting contribution to oppression. Drawing from the clinical psychology literature, we introduce the concepts of ps…
Queering Couple and Family Therapy Education
In this article, the application and impact of queer theory to the authors’ work in a couple and family therapy graduate program in the United States is discussed. Narrating sex, gender, and sexual orientation; raising awareness; liberating identities; holding tensions; and the de-centering as essential considerations in queering couple and family therapy education are discussed. The authors share their own gender, sex, and sexual orientation nar…
Social Privilege and Accountability
This study focuses on the process by which white family therapy scholar activists learn over time to acknowledge and become accountable for their social privilege. Comparing two case studies, the authors analyze the complexities of micro- and macro- systems relative to interconnected social positions of race, class, gender, age, professional role, and sexual orientation. Implications for family therapy education, supervision, and practice are add…
Human Rights in the Practice of Family Therapy
In this article the authors introduce a human rights framework into the practice of family therapy. In particular, the authors explore the relevance of human rights to the practice of liberation-based work, arguing for situating individual experience within collective human rights discourse; drawing from human rights movements to promote resistance and resilience; and using a human rights framework to promote restorative justice and accountabilit…
Class and Classism in Family Therapy Praxis
The field of family therapy has experienced tremendously positive influences by critical theoreticians, expanding the praxis to include multicultural perspectives as well as reflecting upon how race, sex, and other identities influence both clients and practitioners. However, we have found there to be a significant lack of similar interest in how social class and classism influence family therapy. This is particularly distressing, as we argue, be…

Decolonizing Academia
In this paper we offer a framework for supporting decolonizing practices in family therapy and counseling that reflect values of human diversity, collaboration and participation, distributive justice, and self-determination. To this end, we propose a vision of social justice involving at least three foundational elements of professional development and organizational leadership: intersectionality, participation, and accountability. We include cas…
Raising Critical Consciousness in Family Therapy Supervision
Although family therapy literature reflects an increased consideration of cultural and contextual issues, there is little guidance on how to address intersecting forms of oppression and privilege within the supervisory system. In this article, we show the importance of critical consciousness in addressing these issues. Additionally, we provide concrete suggestions and tools for developing critical consciousness through supervision. The practices …
Working with Asian Indian American Families
In this paper, we contribute to an agenda of developing culturally informed practices, centering specifically on working with Asian Indian and Asian Indian American families. We report the results of a modified Delphi study in which we asked advanced members of the counseling field who are of Asian Indian origin to share their insight relative to family therapy with those who identify as Asian Indian or Asian Indian American in the U.S. Panelists…
Diversity and Social Justice Issues in Family Therapy Literature
In this paper, we report on our (a) review of diversity and social justice issues as represented across articles published in five family therapy journals between 1995 and 2005, and (b) in-depth analysis of the content of diversity and social justice related articles in one of the five journals (the Journal of Marital and Family Therapy [JMFT]) during the same time period. Our primary goal is to contribute to the discourse on diversity and social…
Viewing the Asian American Experience Through a Culturally Centered Research Lens
To better understand and serve Asian-Americans, it is imperative for the family science related fields to take a leadership role in providing in-depth insight into Asian-American families. In this article we report a descriptive analysis of articles published in prominent family-based journals over a 14-year period (1992–2006) relative to their attention to Asian-American families. This study examines the types of research conducted and the knowl…
Feminist-Informed Critical Multiculturalism
In this article, the authors draw from feminist, critical, and multicultural research traditions to identify fundamental assumptions for researching from a feminist-informed, critical, multicultural stance. Core considerations include amplifying marginalized voices, interrogating the politics of knowledge production, ensuring research benefits to those at the center of analysis, attending to culture and context, holding ourselves accountable as r…
