About the Course

It explores: clarifying structure, building rapport and a collaborative relationship, and tailoring language, re-examining masculinity, gender and gender-bias.

This course is based on the article, Engaging Men in Psychological Treatment-A Scoping Review created by Zac E. Seidler, MCP, et al. in 2018.
