The latest revision of the highly successful Domestic Violence 2000, STOP Domestic Violence integrates innovative interventions and client-centered guidelines to successfully treat male domestic violence offenders. Developed and field-tested for over twenty-five years among military and civilian populations, WexlerÆs program offers therapists, social-workers, and other counselors a new-level of sound, psychologically based interventions that reach the very men who often seem so unapproachable in a treatment setting. Treatment providers will find new sessions on the effect of trauma on domestic violence, survivor guilt, the use of mindfulness and gratitudes, and intimacy training, as well as a supplementary program that integrates a Level II substance abuse focus into treatment. Presented in a 26- or 52-week psychoeducational session, the manual is packed with updated skills-training exercises, articles, video clips, handouts, homework, and other resources that push participants to examine the role of dominance and control and gives them the tools to better manage the powerful relationship issues, with which they struggle.
