  • Title: When hearing clients work with a deaf therapist.
    Author: Jampel JB.
    Journal: Psychotherapy (Chic); 2010 Jun; 47(2):144-50. PubMed ID: 22402040.
    Abstract:
    Not being able to hear can present significant challenges for the therapist and for the deaf therapist/hearing client dyad. It can also create opportunities. Although the literature indicates that most culturally Deaf therapists work with Deaf clients due to their mutual use of American Sign Language, I describe (a) the background of an audiologically deaf therapist who relies on speech reading rather than sign language, and (b) this therapist's clinical work with hearing clients. Some of the relational dynamics of these treatments are identified, and I conclude by noting how attention to communication can benefit the work of all psychotherapists.
