Product Description
Transform Your Clinical Skills!
Males and females learn, grow, and experience life differently. While there is a broad gender spectrum in brain analysis, brains also differentiate male and female. Thus, no matter the helping profession we work in, sex and gender powerfully influence the children, adolescents, and young adults in our care. Depending on the sex and gender of the child or adult, some interventions will work, some will not work.
Especially with boys and young men, many of our traditional interventions do not work, and males tend to leave our therapy and similar clinical practices too early, or gravitate towards prisons and other punitive institutions, in crisis numbers. Our therapeutic formats are better set up, in the aggregate, for girls and women but we often don’t realize it until it’s too late for the males.
Based on more than thirty years of collaborative research in brain science, gender psychology, and cross-cultural anthropology, this seminar provides a new vision of what boys and men need from clinicians. Because effective clinical practice grows from new thinking and new “doing,” this workshop focuses not only on science-based gender theory, but also on new logic models, practical tools, and evidence-based strategies that will transform your clinical setting, school, hospital, or other environment.
These logic models and science-based tools and strategies do not replace your present psychological theories, but instead blend with all psychological theories to help ensure their clinical effectiveness with both sexes and all genders.
Michael Gurian is one of the world’s leading authorities on sex and gender psychology and will revolutionize your approach to working with both sexes and all genders, from birth onward. His engaging and dynamic speaking styles, along with the use of case studies, visual aids such as PET and SPECT scans, and case results from his own clinical practice will help you better understand males and most effectively intervene and work with them from birth through adulthood.
