How
Connections Heal
Maureen
Walker & Wendy Rosen
|
Relational-Cultural
Theory offers a set of proposals about healing and change
that radically
re-envisions therapeutic practice. As clinicians and educators
encountered the groundbreaking concepts that form the theoretical
core of the model, they often asked two questions: What do
these concepts look like in therapeutic practice? What do
you actually do differently when working from a relational-cultural
framework? How Connections Heal was written in response
to those questions.
The
home study course based on this volume allows the reader
to engage these questions while gaining
an”insider’s” view” of the relationship.
The case stories featured in the How Connections Heal illustrate
the multi-valenced interventions that help the clients and
therapist negotiate power differentials and cultural barriers.
In addition, it provides an in-depth, contextual examination
of processes such as mutual empathy, therapist vulnerability,
and “power-with.” Using a multiple choice question
format, the home study guides the reader through some of
the more nuanced values, practices and presuppositions that
define growth-enhancing movement.
Course Objectives
1. To illustrate how Relational-Cultural
Theory translates into practice in a variety of therapeutic
venues.
2. To explicate the decisional frameworks that guide
therapeutic interventions.
3. To clarify distinctions between the core concepts
and practices of RCT and customary practices
of traditional
therapeutic models.

The
Complexity of Connection
Judith Jordan,
Maureen Walker,& Linda
Hartling
|
The
Complexity of Connection expands the theoretical work of
Relational-Cultural theory(RCT).
It elaborates on the centrality of connection, exploring
such developmental topics as relational competence,
resilience and therapeutic applications. Further, it examines
the importance of culture and issues of power and stratification
in psychological development. To place culture, alongside
connection, at the center of the theory is to break a critical
silence. It acknowledges that social and political values
inform theories of human psychology, including those that
valorize separation and autonomy.
Course
Objectives
1. To help integrate core RCT concepts with an analysis
of culture,
race and power dynamics.
2. To examine new therapeutic applications of RCT to work
with couples, groups, and time limited therapy.
3. To facilitate familiarity with the use of RCT in understanding some workplace
dynamics.
