The Shaping of a Woman's Voice

This three hour CEU course will focus on the ways in which the difficulty "in listening to women is compounded by women's difficulty in listening to themselves" (Gilligan, 1982/1993, p. 51). Women seek out therapy at higher rates than men, yet, do women, and the therapists they work with, comprehend the ways in which women still fall prey to the attitudes and expectations of others? This course will explore and identify many cultural, societal, and familial influences found in the voices, in the language, of others that shape not only a woman's personal voice, but her lived experience. This course is approved for 3 CEUs through the Nevada Board of Examiners for Social Workers.
