Présentation de l'éditeur

This comprehensive, clinical book is designed as a practice guide to lead the counsellor working with violent men through the specifics of the counselling process from beginning to end.

There is then a focus on group therapy with a detailed treatment manual. Treatment themes are organized as modules so that readers may adopt the entire programme or parts of the programme when designing their own. Finally, the authors explore the personal and interpersonal effects of working with violent men.
