A Workbook for Youths and Their Families with Practical Guidelines for Therapists
by Rene McCreary, Ed.S., LPC
Youth with Sexual Behavior Problems is a workbook designed for clinicians treating young individuals exhibiting problematic sexual behaviors. Authored by Rene McCreary, Ed.S., LPC, this resource uniquely incorporates both the youth and their caregivers in the treatment process.
This can be an effective approach for therapists working with youth who have acted out in minor ways and who are not in need of more intensive care. The workbook may also be useful with those who have used technology in sexually problematic ways, youths with different types of developmental or social delays, and youths with characteristics on the autism spectrum, to name a few. Chapters cover topics that have been identified in research to be important when working with these clients. This approach is designed to be short-term and flexible, in order to balance the needs and limitations of both families and treatment providers.
Youth with Sexual Behavior Problems incorporates guidelines for the clinician.
The workbook is divided into eight Sessions:
- Session 1: Assessment and Safety Planning
- Session 2: Boundaries
- Session 3: Feelings Identification
- Session 4: Distress Tolerance
- Session 5: Impulse Control
- Session 6: Cognitive Distortions
- Session 7: Family Team Building
- Session 8: Sexuality
An additional section facilitates open dialogue about pornography. The approach is designed to be supportive, engaging, and non-stigmatizing, focusing on skill-building and positive development.
