Reviews

'Drawing on more than 20,000 hours of treatment with young men, Dave Verhaagen has developed a comprehensive therapeutic strategy to engage young men--not only in therapy, but actually engage them in their own lives. This book is more than 'useful'--it's vitally necessary.' - Michael Kimmel, Professor of Sociology, SUNY Stony Brook; author, Guyland: The Perilous World Where Boys Become Men 'Therapy with Young Men is an excellent book. Dr. Verhaagen describes a wide range of effective cognitive-behavioral interventions that can be implemented with adolescents and young adults with severe behavioral problems. For clinicians who want concrete tools that they can use in their practice to lower resistance and engage out of control adolescents, this is a must read.' - Scott P. Sells, PhD, author, Parenting Your Out of Control Teenager; Treating the Tough Adolescent
