内容説明
From Menarche to Menopause: The Female Body in Feminist Therapy examines the latest research on the menstrual cycle and women's reproductive health. This timely volume focuses on women in therapy who are disconnected fromor even repelled bytheir own bodies due to cultural attitudes, abuse, trauma, or the natural aging process. Experts in the fields of psychology and women's health unite to celebrate the physical life stages of women and girls and to offer practical advice for therapists to use when addressing negativity caused by appearance, age, menstrual symptoms, or reproductive concerns.
In this book, you will gain new understanding about the effects on a woman's mental health that transitional life stages can cause, from preadolescence through the childbearing years to menopause. The suggestions in From Menarche to Menopause can help women resist the bombardment of negative messages and misleading information they receive about their bodies and their reproductive concerns. This helpful resource can also assist you in opening new lines of communication between mothers and daughter, women and men, and women and other women.
From Menarche to Menopause discusses how to handle topics such as:
self-loathing caused by media and cultural messages that affect women's acceptance of their bodies
overcoming a daughter's reluctance to discuss sensitive topics of bodily maturation, menstruation, and emerging sexual development
helping women, men, and couples cope with infertility
assisting women in overcoming a disappointing birth experience
providing therapeutic care to women and couples who experience perinatal loss
