The book is designed to be used in conjunction with the three-phased program of its companion,

Maintaining Change for Adult Male Perpetrators of Child Sexual Abuse, Eldridge presents the theoretical base for using relapse prevention, including information on the relapse process and its implications for assessment of perpetrator patterns, as well as interventions in those patterns and maintenance of change. The book provides the therapist or counselor with guidelines, suggestions, and descriptions covering rationale for the exercises used in each phase, how to introduce the exercises, how to deal with client questions and resistance, different ways of explaining the material, and sample therapist-client dialogues. Well integrated into existing programs, this treatment package is ideal for all who work in a professional capacity with adult male sex offenders and provides a clear map for the excursion into uncharted territories of personal change.

It also makes an excellent training resource or textbook for therapists, counselors, social workers, nurses, and other mental health professionals.
