Gender injustice remains a complex issue in society, influenced by patriarchal values, cultural norms, and unequal social structures. Feminist therapy, as a counseling approach that focuses on individual empowerment and awareness of oppressive social systems, can serve as an effective strategy to address these inequalities. This article presents a systematic review of the literature discussing the application and development of feminist therapy over time. The study's findings indicate that feminist therapy has undergone changes from the first to the third period.
