Biography
Mark S. Woodford, PhD, is an Associate Professor and Chairperson of the Department of Counselor Education at The College of New Jersey.
"This is a short but rich book that seeks to bridge the gap between psychotherapy, neurobiology and addiction in men and boy," –Therapy Today
"Dr. Woodford offers us a gender-informed, interdisciplinary, life span developmental approach to substance abuse counseling with men. I am grateful to him for his masterful, integrative book, which will inform the helping professions for many years into the future." - From the Series Editor’s Foreword by Mark Kiselica, PhD, The College of New Jersey
"This book is a major contribution to the psychology of men because it brings together three salient areas that have rarely been integrated: interpersonal neurobiology, developmental aspects of boy’s and men’s gender role socialization, and substance abuse. I was impressed by the rigor of Woodford’s analysis and excited about the new knowledge presented." - James M. O'Neil, PhD, Professor of Educational Psychology and Family Studies, University of Connecticut; licensed psychologist in private practice, South Windsor, CT.
