Hi.  The most effective treatment for children who have experienced sexual abuse is Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.  It is typically a 12 session treatment program that addresses related emotions and behaviors with both the affected child and nonoffending parent, if there is one.  There is a ton of research supporting its effectiveness with a broad age range (even as young as 3).  The therapy was developed by Esther Deblinger and related research has been published by her and Judy Cohen.

Subject: effectiveness of counselling children who have experienced sexual abuse



Hi

 

I am interested in locating research (if available) that addresses when it may be best to provide counselling to children who have experienced sexual abuse, eg age, readiness, etc.  I would also like to know if there is any research that has established any optimal length of counselling for these clients.  I know that this will depend on a range of facts, symptomatology, family circumstances for example.  Any literature would be helpful in completing a task for work.

 

All information would be highly appreciated.

 

Warm regards
