Historically, male clients attend therapy at a lesser rate than female clients. To address this disparity, this presentation will focus on the therapy practices and considerations for male clients. Starting with a historical overview of therapy as a female dominated field and its impact on male therapy, participants will learn what considerations should be taken when working with male (specifically adolescent male) clients in an effort to market to the male population.

Additionally, participants will learn why the difference between female and male clients exist and the unique characteristics of male clients. Finally, participants will walk away with strategies for working with male clients within the therapy environment.
