FROM THE FEMINIST CRITIQUE OF PSYCHOLOGY TO FEMINIST THERAPY: DEMOCRATISING THERAPEUTIC PRACTICES
This article traces the history of feminist critiques of psychology and outlines the conditions that not only allow for the politicization of psychology by feminists, but also make it appear necessary in the United States in the 1970s. It describes what qualifies the feminist psychologists' project of transforming psychology as a process of politicization and what this entails. Finally, it proposes a reflection, based on this history and the proposals of the feminist psychologists studied, on what democratizing therapy means.
