"Richard is movingly candid about the brokenness in his own family life, and he's not afraid to get down in the trenches and cry, mourn and laugh with everyone else who struggles. This book offers sound practical advice for healing family relationships."    —Joseph Nicolosi, author of Reparative Therapy of Male Homosexualityand Preventing Homosexuality: A Parent's Guide

"Words cannot express the gratitude that we feel in our hearts for the incredible enlightenment that we have received from Gay Children, Straight Parents. This book has changed the life of our family and helped our daughter heal from same-sex attractions. Words can never express the depth of our gratitude."         —Michael & Linda

"This book helped us go from shock and disbelief to an understanding of what happened to our son who experiences same-sex attractions. It showed us how to develop an action plan to help heal the wounds of his heart. This sensitive, intelligent man is now, with his dad's love and encouragement, learning to take the necessary steps into manhood. The personal stories of change throughout the book gave us real hope. We feel confident about our son's future."    —Bob & Sue

"I enthusiastically recommend Gay Children, Straight Parents as a must-read for every parent facing the difficult discovery of their child's homosexuality. Richard's compassionate approach relieves the stigma and shame often associated with a loved-one's homosexual struggle. Whether a parent has just found out or is years into their journey with their gay son or daughter, they will glean understanding, support, guidance and encouragement in their ongoing efforts to love their child well."    —Janelle M. Hallman, M.A., LPC

Praise for Practical Exercises

"At last a practical and therapeutic workbook for all men who wish to heal from unwanted same-sex attraction (SSA). Phelan's Practical Exercises will bless the struggler in his journey into manhood, and those who accompany him. This is a long needed resource in the arsenal of tools to help men reclaim their healthy masculine soul."   —Richard Cohen, M.A., Author, Coming Out Straight, and Gay Children, Straight Parents Director, International Healing Foundation

"This book is a wonderful hands-on approach to recovery from same-sex attraction. It is full of incisive exercises by a professional who knows what he is talking about. Each exercise is designed to deal with one of the problems that are bound to come up for people going through recovery. These include "Fixing boundary violations" (handling mothers that are too intrusive); "Confront the abusers" (writing letters which may or may not be sent); and "Assessing your percentage of sexual addiction" (a helpful chart that helps users evaluate and manage their addiction). A much needed resource!"  —Gerald Schoenewolf, Ph.D., Author, 101 Therapeutic Successes Director, The Living Center, New York City

"Challenging, insightful exercises that will assist men around the globe who wish to grow out of unwanted same-sex attraction and recapture their God-given heterosexuality."

—Elaine Silodor Berk, Co-Director, Jews Offering New Alternatives to Homosexuality (JONAH)

"This book fills a void for all therapists in the mental health field because, if used in combination with one's usual therapeutic efforts, it will enable an approach near the therapeutic skills of Same-Sex Attraction Therapists themselves. With this workbook, therapists can almost do what it takes training to do. It is an understatement to call it a 'welcome addition' to the mental health treatment of the homosexual disorder."

—Samuel A. Nigro, M.D., Child, Adolescent Psychiatrist, Cleveland Heights

"A basic principle to healing homosexuality is the reclaiming of ownership of oneself. Dr. Phelan provides an aid to the change process with his guidelines for making the subjective, objective; for transforming the reactive to the responsive."  —Joseph Nicolosi, Ph.D., Author, Reparative Therapy of Male Homosexuality Former President, National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH)

Light In The Closet

Written by: Arthur Goldberg

Arthur Goldberg is involved in the post-struggler movement and serves as the co-director of JONAH, President of PATH, and Board VP of IHF. Mr. Goldberg's new book Light In The Closet: Torah, Homosexuality and the Power to Change uniquely bridges the gap between religion, psychology, and public policy regarding the important issue of same-sex attraction.

From personal stories of transformation to Jewish Biblical Principles, intertwined with detailed discussions on today’s cultural climate, this engrossing work will be used as a reference for professionals, those seeking change, and their loved ones. Light In The Closet not only reflects Mr. Goldberg's years of experience, but also his wisdom and compassion. This text should be required reading for every religious institution, public policy forum, health or psychological association, and for those affected by issues of same-sex attraction.

This book breaks new ground, explaining the harmony of psychological healing for homosexuality with the classic teachings of Judaism. It also exposes the ''gay gene'' myth and describes the deliberate strategy of gay activists and their allies to culturally sensitize Western society to the point that a large portion of society now seeks to normalize the behavior. By entitling the book Light In The Closet, Mr. Goldberg provides a message of hope and healing for those who seek change.

Praise for Light in the Closet

"Arthur Goldberg has written a brilliant, compassionate, and remarkably compelling book. I consider it among the best, maybe the best, ever written on the subject not just on homosexuality but of the capacity for the human change of heart, T'Shuvah in the Jewish phrase.''  —Jeffrey Satinover, M.D., Author, Homosexuality and the Politics of Truth

"Arthur Goldberg's sweeping and scholarly survey investigates the social, political, spiritual, medical, and personal aspects of same-sex attraction. Written with both compassion and hard-hitting truth, this book unifies the wisdom of the Torah with modern psychology, and in so doing, reveals timeless truths about the human condition."  —Joseph Nicolosi, Ph.D., Author, Reparative Therapy of Male Homosexuality
