>> 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.
