Clinical Practice with Women in Their Middle Years.

Sands, Roberta G.; Richardson, Virginia

Social Work, v31 n1 p36-43 Jan-Feb 1986

Because of inaccurate assumptions and biases in developmental theories, the unique concerns of middle-aged women have not been sufficiently addressed. They must reconcile their masculine and feminine selves by reassessing their interpersonal relationships, their physical beings, and the meaning of work and achievement. Describes a four-phase clinical approach. (Author/ABB)
