Summary

Initiatives beyond therapy and counselling - tackling a range of social inequalities - are also essential to realizing women's emotional wellbeing. Counsellors' views and experience are also analysed to clarify the nature of their theories and methods, the impact of practice on them as workers and the significance of attempts to create non-hierarchical forms of organization.
