Long known for his expertise on the special needs of men in psychotherapy, Dr. Ron Levant is joined by Shana Pryor in producing this excellent collection of chapters to guide psychotherapists in assessing and treating emotionally unexpressive men. Packed with clinically validated suggestions for both individual and group work, this book provides both a comprehensive overview and many ideas for starting points with clients who avoid, deny, or fail to recognize many of their own feelings."Gerry Koocher, PhD, ABPP, former president of the American Psychological Association"Augmenting their own considerable expertise, the editors have assembled a remarkable group of scholars and clinicians to produce the definitive volume on this very important and much neglected topic—a must read for any psychotherapist who works with men."Christopher Kilmartin, PhD, independent consultant, professor emeritus of psychology, University of Mary Washington"Levant and Pryor have given mental health practitioners a true gift. The outstanding contributors in this book have developed a roadmap for treating men who are trying to ditch traditional masculinity and develop loving and fulfilling relationships. The evidence-based research and treatment put forward here belongs on your shelf immediately."
