The central concept of feminist therapy is the concern for the psychological oppression of women and the socialization of women which affects the development of their individual identity. Feminist therapy incorporates a worldview that no one should be forced into stereotypical roles based on their gender (Corey, 2013). It focuses on creating a therapeutic framework in which clients can work toward their own empowerment and learn to communicate with others in responsible, healthy, and caring ways (Corey, 2013). Adolescents are a time of important transitions in life. in which young adults learn to cope with changes brought on by physical and emotional maturation (Sands & Howard-Hamilton, 1994). During this time, girls begin to become more aware of themselves as women and learn to identify societal cues to conform appropriately to their gender (Sands & Howard-Hamilton, 1994). The high school girls in this writers program begin to understand that they can use their bodies to attract the attention of boys, making them value their individual beauty. Some girls have understood that the “boys” they like do not value them for their brains, but for their beauty. So this is where high school becomes a popularity contest and their academic performance starts to suffer. This is where group therapy can fit well with the spirit of feminist therapy (Corey, 2013). Although traditional feminist therapy focuses on oppression and powerlessness, as a group we could explore other feminist topics such as gender identity, self-esteem and their place in society . By doing this, they could gain a solid understanding of their self-worth, and hopefully...... middle of article...... feminist therapy would be appropriate when working in group, therapy as a whole would not be beneficial for adolescents due to their limited understanding of our society as a whole and does not align with this writer's personal beliefs. Understanding the ethical and multicultural aspects of this field is extremely important and plays a vital role when creating change. In order to gain true understanding and develop a trusting relationship with a client, one must respect and understand their culture and religious beliefs. Failing to understand or ignore a culture could harm the client's success as well as the therapeutic relationship. Unfortunately, as humans, we form biases without knowing it; but as Linzer (1999) says, “the beginning of wisdom is tackling complexity, not sweeping it under the rug ».”.
