Balancing Family and Work: Special Considerations in Feminist Therapy

By Toni Schindler Zimmerman

Offers therapists ideas for helping clients (and themselves) balance family life and work. Explores both theoretical and immediately applicable ideas for helping clients achieve and improved balance between work life and family life. Examines a national study of dual-earner couples caring for children and aging parents and the behavioral accommodations they make at home; assesses the impact of relocation on family/work life; brings diversity issues to the forefront; assesses the impact of dominant metaphors about personhood and family.
