Abstract

In this article the author reviews some of the literature on class, including the recent feminist work and then applies it to how class matters play themselves out in psychotherapy. By looking at how therapists hold negatively biased attitudes toward those of the lower classes, the article confronts some of the myths and stereotypes held by the public, and professionals, about the people in classes other than one's own. Then the reader is challenged to think about how class attitudes are reflected in the helping relationship and what might be some implication for those engaged in feminist practice in overcoming class bias.
