People who view child sexual abuse material (CSAM) enter treatment with distinct clinical challenges, including intense shame, secrecy, and ambivalence about their actions. In this webinar, David Delmonico and Elizabeth Griffin introduce a structured, therapeutic approach to addressing these behaviors with clarity, compassion, and accountability. They further discuss its application in their newly released The Illegal Images Workbook.

Complex trauma and dissociation are areas that have been rife with misunderstanding and misconception. Understanding these concepts is vital not only for clinicians but for all professionals working with children, as misdiagnosis or oversight can have lasting developmental consequences. In this webinar, Ana M. Gómez, an author, clinician, and international educator, and Jillian Hosey, a clinician in private practice and active leader within multiple organizations, share what they have learned from years of study and practice in the area of complex trauma and dissociation in children. Drawing on both their clinical expertise and their editorial work on the new Handbook of Complex Trauma and Dissociation in Children: Theory, Research, and Clinical Applications—the most comprehensive volume to date on this topic—Ms. Gómez and Ms. Hosey explore our current understanding of these concepts and clarify what each is and isn’t

RaeAnn Anderson, PhD, a human sexuality researcher and educator at the Sexual Violence Prevention Laboratory of the University of Missouri–Kansas City, makes a strong case that both research and practice are not making the most of our existing findings and that the true implications of what we have learned are profound. During this webinar, Dr. Anderson explores what we know about repeated sexual harm perpetration by young men across multiple settings, drawing from a variety of fields to highlight both the evidence and its consequences.

Talking about sex is rarely simple, even for professionals working in sexual offense treatment. Boundaries can feel unclear and often vary from one setting to another. On top of that, separating personal values, beliefs, and experiences from one’s professional role can present additional challenges. Every client brings their own history, perspectives, and interests into the treatment setting, making these conversations even more complex. Yet, best practices necessitate that professionals develop confidence in directly addressing sexual topics with clients. Not only are these discussions essential for effective risk management, but also for supporting clients in developing healthy sex lives that are incompatible with offending. Nikole Nassen, Bud Ballinger, Seth Wescott, and Katie Gotch—leading clinicians and educators in sexual offense prevention—join us to guide this panel discussion. Drawing on their diverse experiences across inpatient and outpatient settings, they share insights, strategies, and practical guidance for navigating the often-uncharted territory of healthy sexuality.

Skills for the effective prevention of suicide are critical for practitioners of all backgrounds and settings. Too often, professionals focus heavily on assessment and risk management, leaving clients feeling unheard or disconnected from the process. Solution-focused therapy (SFT) offers an alternative—one that centers on a client's strengths, potential, and capacity for change rather than on risk alone.

In this webinar discussion, author Emma Burns and psychotherapist John Henden share their insights from their work using SFT with individuals experiencing suicidality. This conversation underscores the value of staying client-centered and strengths-based, even in complex and high-risk situations. It’s an opportunity to consider how subtle shifts in approach can open channels for change and healing.

The viewing and sharing of child sexual exploitation material (CSEM) have steadily risen since the internet’s inception, making it critical to understand the true nature of CSEM reoffending. In this webinar, researchers Serra Baskurt, Kelly Babchishin, PhD, and Michael Seto, PhD, present a groundbreaking meta-analysis that reveals startling differences between self-reported and officially recorded recidivism rates. Their findings uncover much higher levels of persistent CSEM use than previously recognized and challenge current assumptions about offense detection. Attendees will gain valuable insights into the implications for assessment, treatment, and policy, grounded in a modern understanding of risk, need, and responsivity.

In this engaging webinar, Ana Gómez, author of EMDR-Sandtray-Based Therapy, explores the integration of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with sandtray therapy to support healing from complex trauma and dissociation across the lifespan. Participants will discover how creativity, symbols, and embodied expression in the sandtray can bridge the implicit and explicit experience, allowing deeply held memories and sensations to surface within a safe, relational space. Through demonstration and discussion, Ms. Gómez illustrates how attuned presence and collaborative meaning making foster integration, connection, and lasting therapeutic change.

Despite decades of progress in the evaluation and treatment of adults and adolescents who have sexually abused, “emerging adults” (roughly ages 18–25) often don’t fit neatly into either group. In this webinar, Dr. Waltrip and Dr. Leslie explore the developmental, legal, and clinical factors that make this population unique. Drawing on their extensive experience, they will discuss how to recognize the characteristics of emerging adults, differentiate their needs from those of adolescents and adults, and apply effective assessment tools and treatment approaches tailored to each client.

Join us for an inspiring conversation with Dr. Stephen Rollnick, co-founder of Motivational Interviewing (MI) and co-author of its foundational texts. In this interview, Dr. Rollnick reflects on a career dedicated to understanding how compassionate, collaborative conversations can inspire meaningful change. Drawing from his work across healthcare, sports, and behavioral health—including groundbreaking research with individuals convicted of sexual offenses—he explores how professionals can foster self-awareness, safety, and openness in both individual and group settings. Attendees will gain fresh insight into how MI’s core principles continue to evolve and inform efforts in prevention, treatment, and personal growth.
