Needs Behaviour Change Support

Behaviour Change Support

For over 50 years, Cranstoun has supported people to rebuild lives, inspired transformation and empowered positive change. Their ReSET programme is for those who are aware that their relationships have become distressing and damaged by their behaviour. Cranstoun deliver specialist programmes and 1:1 interventions depending on the needs of the individual. 

Men & Masculinities

The programme focuses on behaviour, how we act, how this reinforces how we think and feel, and most importantly, how to act differently. It is also designed to support any other treatment you may be involved with. The programme is a rolling programme that lasts up to 24 weeks across three core modules:

  • Coercion
  • Control
  • Consequences

We look at how pressure builds inside of you, how to deal with conflict safely and how your experiences of masculinity have shaped the lens through which you see your relationships.

We will also try to help you come to terms with the worst of your experiences, how to break the link between the past and the present, and how to stop repeating the traumas at the heart of your behaviour.

We will explore what it means to be a respectful and supportive parent, whatever your relationship with your child or children may be.

We will also explore how to rebuild trust in your life. We will look at any issues around intimacy, closeness, sex and sexuality, including how to love generously, or how to let go.
