Here is the first volume ever to focus on the issues of Jewish women in the context of counseling and psychotherapy. Through poignant reflection and observation, the authors convey the richness and variety of Jewish women's experiences and the Jewishness and femaleness of the concerns, issues, values, and attitudes that Jewish women—both clients and therapists—bring into the therapy room.
