This is an introductory workshop on the treatment of sexual abuse. This workshop will provide participants with an overview of sexual trauma, exploring what trauma is, the impact on individuals and families, and the recovery/treatment process, focusing on the transition from victim to survivor to thriver. This course will demonstrate how to assess for sexual trauma when working with children, adolescents and adults. Additionally, participants will receive an overview of empirically-supported trauma treatment models and will learn to work compassionately and effectively with trauma survivors throughout the recovery/treatment process.
