Men are expected to be independent, self-sufficient, stoic, and
invulnerable. Consequently, they may have trouble identifying or
expressing weaknesses or problems within treatment, which may be
perceived as a lack of trust or an unwillingness to be open with
counselors or fellow clients.
Men are also expected to be competitive and, at times,
aggressive. As a result, male clients may develop combative or
competitive relationships with male treatment group members and
staff or may appear resistant to others' suggestions. They may
resent being told what to do, and so suggestions may need to be
reframed as conclusions that are reached collaboratively between
client and counselor.
Since men have a need for autonomy motivational techinques
would be beneficial by emphasizing free choice for them.The session
could succeed if men are given offers to decide how the process

From my experience,men are challenging as clients. Unlike with
my female clients, there was no mutuality of experience to draw
upon to smooth the process of forging the therapeutic bond. With my
male clients, I became keenly aware that often I was seen by them
as a woman first and a therapist second. With a man, I introduce
therapy as an educational experience, offering verbal and written
descriptions of "what to expect in therapy." A basic problem for
women who treat men is that, no matter how empathic we may be, we
haven't had the same socialization they've had.
