Central to the author's analysis of his experiences is the controversial issue of whether or not treating employee problems in a clinical setting—medicalizing them—is a form of social control that substitutes for political change in the workplace.
Inside an Emotional Health Program considers questions essential to the existence of any employee counseling program: Who uses the program? For what kinds of problems? How do program clients decide to seek help? Are their problems resolved? How? What are the benefits to the employer?
It provides a great deal of information and many insights on this relatively new workplace phenomenon and should be a valuable resource for the personnel management and counseling communities.
