Working
With Men and Women Who Have Suffered Sexual Abuse - Two Day
Course:
As the prevalence of disclosure of sexual
abuse is increasing (particularly with regards to men) and more
people are coming forward for help and support, we feel this is
an important course which is designed to help and assist those
professionals who may come into contact or work directly with
adult survivors of sexual abuse. The course will provide insight
and understanding of the issues surrounding the subject along
with opportunities to explore and develop strategies for working
with this client group.
This 2 day course is part experiential,
part educational and part exercise based. The course will
provide information on the prevalence and the impact of sexual
abuse on children and adults. By using examples of best practise
the course examines the nature of the support which can be
offered to clients. Through experiential learning participants
will gain insight into the psychological and emotional impact of
a client's sexual abuse. Due to the sensitivity of the subject
matter a plenary session will be held at the end of each day
which provides an opportunity for debrief.
By the end
of the course participants will be able to:
- Have an understanding of
the impact of sexual abuse on individuals.

the pre-determining factors such as familial and cultural
influences.
