- W2560746894 abstract "Feminist Mental Health Care (FMHC) is grounded on the feminism inspired critique that traditional mainstream mental health care misrepresents, unequally treats and unjustifiably pathologizes women. FMHC combined the movements for democratisation and deprofessionalisation in health care along with a shift from a predominantly illness-oriented form of health care to one emphasising clients’ well being. Alternative (mental) health practices were developed by both professional and lay volunteers. Initially these were self-help groups. Gradually, FMHC also emerged within mainstream mental health services. FMHC is characterised by its sex-specific, politicising and client-centred approach (Brown, 1994; van Mens-Verhulst, 1991, 1998; Watson & Williams, 1992). The sexspecific approach opposes the sex neutrality of most traditional mental health care practices. It asks for attention for the different health problems men and women have and for acknowledgement that problems may look alike but that the reality of experience may differ between women and men. As a consequence, different treatments may be required. FMHC does not predominantly localise the sex differences in biology but in society. It emphasises that the socialisation of women is a very important factor in the genesis of mental health problems. For the most part, women have to deal with values, norms, roles and opportunities that are very different from those of men when they are growing up, but their mental state is judged by male standards (Broverman, Broverman, Clarkson, Rosenkrantz & Vogel, 1970). Moreover, during their lifetimes, many more women than men are confronted with physical and sexual violence some of the acknowledged risk factors for mental illness. The politicising approach of FMHC counters the individualistic assumptions that are so common in traditional practices. It focuses on the influence of societal and cultural contexts on the problems of women and their therapeutic relationships. Inequality of power is the central theme, empowerment the essential process. A politicised approach implies an attitude of anti-domination combined with a selection of emancipatory goals, methods and settings for treatment. The client-centred approach tackles the inclination of traditional therapists and institutions to let their professional prescriptions, methods, language, procedures and schedules prevail over clients' needs. In contrast, it considers clients as active and competent participants just as much when" @default.
