Feminist Counseling: A Literature Review on Gender Issues and Social Injustice Against Women

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study aims to examine the application of feminist counseling in addressing gender issues and social injustices experienced by women, as well as to analyze the techniques used in this counseling practice. The method used is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), which involves collecting and analyzing relevant scientific articles. The results of the study show that feminist counseling is effective in helping women recognize and overcome the social injustices they experience, strengthen self-awareness, and improve psychological well-being. The techniques used in feminist counseling include client empowerment, gender role deconstruction, social advocacy, and open dialogue. The conclusion of this study is that feminist counseling can play an important role in fighting for gender equality and overcoming social injustice by providing clients with a space to identify and overcome existing social barriers. The theoretical implications of this study reinforce feminist counseling theory, while the practical implications provide guidelines for counselors to apply this approach in psychological services in various institutions.
