Author Description

If you're looking for new and innovative ways of working with child and adolescent survivors of sexual abuse - and child/juvenile perpetrators of sexual abuse - then look no further. In this book, Mic Hunter and a talented team of professionals begin by offering concise, practical discussions on topics related to survivors, including managing self-regulation disorders in sexually abused boys, treating ritual abuse survivors, and inpatient treatment of adolescent survivors of sexual abuse. Next, contributors focus on treating the child/juvenile offender and examining such issues as treating abuse reactive children, parallel treatment for parents of abuse reactive children, societal responses to sexually aggressive children, and identifying and responding to juvenile sexual abuse offenders. For each issue examined, contributors offer concrete suggestions for intervention.
