Abstract This paper discusses the tenets of intersectionality and applies them to clinical practice and supervision. Power differentials, enactments, and the mutual influences of race, class and sexual orientation on clinicians and clients, students and supervisors are presented and discussed through examples of intersectional impasses.
期刊介绍:
Psychoanalytic Social Work provides social work clinicians and clinical educators with highly informative and stimulating articles relevant to the practice of psychoanalytic social work with the individual client. Although a variety of social work publications now exist, none focus exclusively on the important clinical themes and dilemmas that occur in a psychoanalytic social work practice. Existing clinical publications in social work have tended to dilute or diminish the significance or the scope of psychoanalytic practice in various ways. Some social work journals focus partially on clinical practice and characteristically provide an equal, if not greater, emphasis upon social welfare policy and macropractice concerns.
