Abstract
Advocacy for social change has been described as an ethical mandate in feminist therapy theory. Feminist family therapy has focused on the empowerment of women within the familial context, but not addressed the feminist therapist's role in broader societal issues or training models which integrate advocacy with treatment paradigms. This article presents the problem-posing model of Paulo Freire as one way to introduce advocacy issues into therapeutic and ethical frameworks. An application of Freire's model, Empowerment Education, is adapted for use in live family therapy supervision, illustrated through case example, and compared to other family therapy supervision models.
