Integrating Feminist Approaches In Counseling Work With Adult Women, Kristen M. Toole
Adultspan Journal
The scope of ‘women’s issues’ in counseling is an ever-evolving landscape. Recent events such as the reversal of Roe v. Wade and the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on women serve as powerful reminders of the necessity of this focus while underscoring a deep-rooted history of oppressive patriarchal structures.

The purpose of this study was to improve the understanding of how perceptions of practicing specific medical specialties contribute to career decisions.

Technique-oriented comments included working in a hospital setting, performing technical procedures, …

A robust and rigorous certification system is important to the profession, to individual physicians, and to patients and other …
