Men in Therapy
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.

It provides detailed guidelines for helping men initiate and sustain change in their personal, familial, and professional lives.
Awakening from the Deep Sleep
A powerful guide for courageous men who long to connect more deeply and fully with their families and friends. Drawing from his years of counseling, psychologist and family therapist Robert Pasick explores issues of work, anger, grief, women, sexuality, fatherhood, and addiction. He redefines manhood and shows men how to build upon the strengths they already have to take better care of themselves and others.

All therapists at some time or other are confronted with cases that do not fit the assumptions of their chosen theoretical model--clients who should get better do not, while others improve for reasons the model does not explain. One lesson that can (and should) be drawn from such cases is that the client's perception of the therapist's behavior and of the intervention process is a powerful factor in therapeutic success or failure. These relationship factors account for a significant proportion of change in psychotherapy, yet little has been written about how to utilize them.
