Men in Therapy cover

Men have long been considered difficult to engage in psychotherapy, often being described as resistant, unworkable, and unfeeling. The few available books that deal specifically with men's issues tend to lack a central theoretical focus, are highly psychoanalytic in content, or simply do not provide specific guidelines for working with men. This unique and timely volume fills an important gap in the literature by demonstrating why change is often so difficult for them. It provides detailed guidelines for helping men initiate and sustain change in their personal, familial, and professional lives.

It will be helpful in understanding a strategy for changing male behavior. --Duncan Smith, Brown University; Course: Representation of Masculin
- I have given it as a gift and have recommended it again and again. It very sensitively and clearly elucidates men's experience in a way that is most instructive....A must-read for any therapist. --AFTA Newsletter, 10/20/1991
