On Saturday , November 26, Dr. Pascoe will be facilitating a workshop on "Exploring Male Sexuality".

The objectives of Counselling Men Effectively are to help participants to:
Engage and keep male clients from opting out of therapy too early
Maximize the impact of the initial session
Learn to deal with the clients' anger and tears
Address overt and covert addictions
Help the client rediscover the wounded "little boy"
Deal with deficits and advantages of being a male or female counsellor
Become comfortable with uncomfortable subjects
Work with suicidal clients
Understand their role in counselling men effectively
Day two will provide clinical examples & intensive discussion of the difficult client (grandiose narcissistic professional male, power /control)
Develop creative & innovative strategies to apply in their practice
EXPLORING MALE SEXUALITY
This is for you if the following are meaningful for you:
Masculinity is NOT a pathological CONDITION
DOES YOUR PENIS HAVE A MIND OF ITS OWN?
Do you confuse SEX and L O V E?
Do you understand the needs of your partner?
Sexuality as a dimension of personality
What about pornography?
