The latest revision of the highly successful Domestic Violence 2000, this Fourth Edition of The STOP Domestic Violence Program integrates innovative interventions and client-centered guidelines to successfully treat male domestic violence offenders. The bold interventions from STOP have now been field-tested for over thirty years among military and civilian populations—and STOP has now treated over 50,000 domestic violence offenders. Dr. Wexler’s 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—based on the latest evidence-supported strategies—on insecure attachment issues, stages of change, groundbreaking results from the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) study, normative male alexithymia, stake in conformity issues, substance abuse issues, and more. This new edition integrates 24 field-tested video clips to dramatically illustrate key issues for the group.
The STOP Domestic Violence Program-4th Edition offers group leaders everything they need to understand male domestic violence and the interventions to make a difference

THE STOP PROGRAM FOR WOMEN WHO ABUSE (second edition) Group leader's manual for treating women who abuse their partners—now updated and revised.
Long disregarded, female domestic violence is rapidly gaining awareness as research proves not only that it exists, but that the frequency of women abusing men is much higher than we ever knew. While certain core elements of intimate partner violence are shared among all domestic violence offenders, female offenders face unique triggers, personal backgrounds, and relationship dynamics.
Now fully updated and revised, The STOP Program For Women Who Abuse is the most innovative and comprehensive manual to address domestic violence treatment specifically to female offenders, with a program targeted to engage women in their own healing process. This second edition includes new sessions on the Five Love Languages, the Stages of Change, and Stake in Conformity, and updates throughout the text reflect an increased emphasis on trauma theory, attachment theory, mindfulness techniques, and gratitudes. Handouts and homework for participants (sold separately) provide structure for recovery both within sessions and at home.

Written by David B. Wexler, PhD

This program addresses the rapidly increasing awareness of female domestic violence and need for quality treatment services. Developed and field-tested for over twenty-five years among military and civilian populations, this program integrates contemporary interventions and client-centered guidelines to treat domestic violence offenders—who happen to be female. Based on the acclaimed domestic violence treatment program STOP Domestic Violence, which focused on male domestic violence offenders, this book recognizes what is now being widely accepted, abuse is abuse regardless of gender, and must be treated.
These worksheets and exercises, fully integrated with the main book, keep group members actively engaged in overcoming their abusive behaviors. Packaged as loose-leaf sheets, they can be added, removed, or rearranged to suit the needs of any leader administering the program.

“It’s Just A Choice” DVD
Written by David B. Wexler, PhD and Holly B. Sweet, PhD
$24.95
The rapid rise of the #MeToo movement has created a seismic shift in how we work with sexual misconduct that occurs in relationships between men and women, but the scope and impact of behaviors within that category is full of gray areas. #MeToo-Informed Therapy guides therapists in finding effective ways to help men who offend, empowering women to find their voices, exploring ways for men to be allies in the #MeToo movement, and helping couples whose relationships can be enhanced by understanding #MeToo issues.
This book is designed for counselors, therapists, and anyone in the helping professions to understand the men (usually) who engage in sexual misconduct, the women (usually) who are on the receiving end, and the couples whose relationships have been disrupted by prior experiences with sexual harassment and/or assault. The book is not focused on gross criminal behavior (i.e., rape) but more about the gray areas of everyday interactions between the sexes and the various psychological and societal forces that get in the way.
Organizations such as college counseling centers, military counseling centers, mental health clinics, and corporate HR departments have already shown interest in ordering bulk copies for all staff. Books are also available at WWNorton.com and Amazon.com.

#METOO-INFORMED THERAPY: Counseling Approaches for Men, Women, and Couples
Written by David B. Wexler, PhD
$32.00
In Men in Therapy, Dr. David Wexler illuminates the ways in which cultural norms and assumptions color the male experience of psychotherapy. He explains how the traditional notions of masculinity (the “Guy Code”) keep men away from the therapist’s office and inhibit men trying to benefit from counseling and therapy. In this ground-breaking book, therapists are offered a rich understanding of these issues and even richer set of guidelines and strategies for engaging men in new and creative ways.
Men enter the world of counseling due to a wide range of needs and come from a wide variety of backgrounds, and they do not always show up voluntarily. Individual chapters are devoted to the treatment of men in relationships, men suffering from depression, fathers, men who abuse women, and men of color. Wexler provides a fresh perspective on the issues unique to each group, plus sound advice and common sense methods for treating each of these groups effectively, nonjudgmentally, and professionally. He draws on contemporary research, his 25 years of extensive clinical experience, and his own experience of therapy as a man, to equip the therapist with the knowledge and confidence necessary to provide effective therapy to men.

Integrated Skills Program for Latino Men With Cultural Adaptations
Integrated Skills Program for Latino Men With Cultural Adaptations

$35.00
“In any kind of psychological treatment, it is essential to take cultural contributions to behavior into account. With great respect for Latino culture, the authors have developed an excellent resource for combating domestic violence.” Bernardo Ferdman, Ph.D., Professor, Alliant International University, San Diego, U.S.A., and Past President of the Interamerican Society of Psychology. “Definitely the best and most culturally relevant domestic violence manual available. The model is effective, the translation is solid, and the additional material that specifically addresses the cultural differences that we encounter in the Hispanic community makes this book a must-have for any agencies dealing with Spanish-speaking domestic violence clients.” Customer, 20th Century History Books.com
Sin Golpes was originally developed and field-tested in English for the U.S. Navy over a 13-year period. Using client centered guidelines, the manual integrates a lively package of cognitive-behavioral skills and psychoeducation about abuse while maintaining the primary emphasis on respect for the abuser himself.
This new Spanish edition is much more than a translation.
It contains:
Adaptations and expansion of content specific to Latino culture, based on qualitative research, demographic data, and the literature on family violence.
An introduction to the Spanish edition, including cultural guidelines on methodology for Latino offenders and therapeutic strategies that are likely to be effective for Latinos.
The use of simple vocabulary, with definitions of words that many group members may not have heard.
The eight sections are presented from the perspective of Latino clients:
Foundations, brief interventions, self-management, human rights, parent education, relationship skills, spirituality and prevention, and relapse prevention.
The program includes:
A compact disc included with the manual, of relaxation exercises to be used in group.
Exercises, handouts, and homework assignments to help clients deal with the powerful issues with which they are struggling. Client workbooks are also available for purchase. Please note that client workbooks are protected by copyright and may not be reproduced
