Rezensionen
"Innovative and very challenging... not only locating therapy within systemic, political and cultural contexts but also providing much useful clinical advice - highly recommended!" - Professor Eia Asen, Clinical Director of the Marlborough Family Service, London, and Visiting Professor at University College London, UK

"Terrific! As the title promises, it taught me to break my heart; it also expanded my mind and filled my soul with gladness. Speaking from personal and professional experience and integrating an unusual set of theories, Taiwo shows how power, resistance and liberation help therapists - and ordinary people outside of therapy - act collaboratively with others." - W. Barnett Pearce, Fielding Graduate University, California, USA


"The concise and critical discussions of the theories that inform the writer's perspective on power, resistance, liberation and therapy make the book educational about more than just its narrow focus and its user-friendly layout, with short chapters, case studies and succinct discussions of both theory and practice, make it easily digestible and highly practical." - Sibongile Mkhize, New Therapist, July/August 2012

"If you're looking for an alternative to the mental health 'trauma industry', this book is a good place to start. Afuape's piercing sensitivity and empathy take the reader deep into the challenges, pitfalls and paradoxes of conducting psychotherapy with victims of violence and oppression. ... It is an innovative and deep reading of one of the most promising areas of psychology - liberation theory - using a practical, accessible language that will be familiar to practitioners of all walks and leanings." - Sarah R. Kamens, The Humanistic Psychologist, May 2012

"[Afuape] is clearly a well read and very thoughtful person who seeks to live out a deeply committed ethico-political position in her every-day and professional practice. Reading the text one is convinced of her passion in this regard and this is part of what makes the book engaging." - Gill Eagle, PINS, Vol. 44 - 2013
