Fall Conference 2008 "Counseling Men Effectively" Barron’s
Inn Featuring Dr.
Wray Pascoe
Men tend to seek help when their partner is threatening to leave, their job is in jeopardy, or their functioning is impaired due to depression or substance abuse. Practitioners protest that men are difficult to engage and resist engagement in the process. Male clients present unique challenges to both male and female counselors. This workshop will appeal to both the beginning as well as the experienced therapist. In addition, practitioners who work with couples, men experiencing health problems or offenders will find the content useful. The format will be a combination of didactic presentation, case discussion, video presentation, role-play and small group discussion on key issues. The day will conclude with a question and answer period. . Members in the News Major Peter E. Bauer USAR MS, clinical social worker and member of the Texas Society for Clinical Social Work, has been recalled to service in support of the military operations ongoing in Iraq.

In April of this year Peter did a presentation on PTSD at the 2006 Tri-Service Combat Stress Conference at Camp Pendleton, California, and he will be presenting again this year at the 2006 Uniformed Services Social Worker Conference in Arlington, Virginia on August 2, 2006. Currently Peter is working in the substance abuse program in the Dwight Eisenhower Medical Center at Fort Gordon, Georgia doing clinical assessments and treatment with patients, and training on relapse prevention for patients and staff.
