Write a review. … if you’re interested in any form of psychotherapy or counselling as well as in feminism, then this is the book for you. Diana Currie, Newsletter of Women with Disabilities AustraliaI recently bought Beyond Psychoppression, Betty McLellan’s book – a feminist critique of mainstream psychotherapy. Hearing that a friend was having “great gobs of depression”, I photocopied a chapter for her to read. She loved it and declared, “I definitely feel better from having read it – thank you.” Now she is waiting impatiently for me to finish reading the book so I can pass it on to her. Sandra Sewell
