About this title

Synopsis

This book outlines a brief, solution–focused approach to treating sexual abuse survivors, providing a clear, accessible guide to using problem–focused/solution–oriented psychotherapy with sexual abuse patients. Most professional books on the treatment of sexual abuse propose long–term models focusing on retrieving and processing memories of abuse. Instead, this book offers a brief, solution–oriented approach to treatment which stresses the present and future. Using stories, analogies, case examples, this accessible manual shows therapists how to apply the powerful and practical solution–oriented approach to the "3–D after–effects of sexual abuse": Dissociation, Disowning, and Devaluing.
