If Martin Pollecoff didn’t already have a moustache, he would be growing one for Movember. The psychotherapist and Chair of UKCP has much experience to share about the importance, and challenges of, engaging men in therapy. He started his counselling career at an Alcohol and Substance abuse clinic in Wrexham, and founded The Long Boat Home for ex-services personnel and their families. This November, men’s mental and physical health will once again be in the spotlight. But, argues Pollecoff, outside the consulting room, it is harder for men to talk honestly than ever before.
