Popis:	For over four decades, a continuing thread in the literature has emphasized the unique challenges and impasses in psychotherapy with men. Parallel to this, empirical and clinical research for over four decades has documented men's positive response to a values-based Integrity model of psychotherapy across a wide spectrum of issues. Only recently have other researchers begun focusing on the merits of a strengths-based positive perspective on men and masculinities. This paper offers a theoretical and clinical exploration of an Integrity model, values-based therapeutic perspective in working with men in individual psychotherapy from a strengths-based, gender-sensitive, positive psychology framework. Three case examples—Mark, Francois and Peter—presenting with significant distress including sexual dysfunction, illustrate the viability of this existential perspective in engaging and working with men in individual psychotherapy.
