Description

..”.a program of world standard in addressing one of the most serious social issues of our time.” FOREWORD by Steve Bidulph. Men fare poorly in several measurable areas after a relationship breakdown and appear to take longer to reconstitute healthy and productive lifestyles after separation or divorce. The MENDS program aims to reduce anxiety and depression, as well as contain anger and enhance client self-judgments and senses of wellbeing by providing valid and practical information, along with effective methods of self-auditing, planning and progress evaluation. The 12-week program adopts a structured, psycho-educational, and multidisciplinary forum for clients to address areas of psychological wellbeing, physical health, legal/social issues, and relationships. Importantly, the MENDS program focuses on the male experience of key transition issues occurring during separation or relationship crisis, in order to help participants develop a personal and practical ‘map and compass’.
