“…For purposes of this review, and due to the potential for impact from experiences other than maltreatment, the discussion of treatment following abuse will be limited to literature examining treatment in childhood following CSA as opposed to treatment of adults victimized as children. In children and adolescents, utilizing group therapy for victims tends to be a popular and effective mode of treatment due to the fact that sexual abuse is cloaked in secrecy and often results in the victim feeling isolated (Heiman & Ettin, 2001). Results from a one month follow-up study after 11 sessions of treatment, female victims (aged 8-11 years) participating in group therapy showed that the participants and their caregivers felt the treatment had helped (Heiman & Ettin, 2001).…”

of personal, familial, and abuse-specific factors with outcome following childhood sexual abuse" (2010). Faculty Publications, Department of Psychology. 550. http://digitalcommons.unl.edu/psychfacpub/550 C hildhood sexual abuse (CSA) has become one of the most widely researched areas in child psychology in recent years. The public has also been made more aware of CSA and possible effects of sexual abuse through efforts from advocacy groups as well as the use of research data in recent political legislation and popular press reports. Recent reports have placed the number of identified CSA victims at 56,460 children during the year 2007 in the United States (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Children, Youth, and Families, 2009). Research estimates of prevalence of CSA range from 27% to 32% for females and 13% to 16% for males experiencing sexual abuse before adulthood (Berliner & Elliot, 1996

“…As cost-effective and efficient ways to treat many with the fewest resources available, group interventions are frequently utilized with victims of CSA, as well as with non-offending family members to provide them with their own sources of support (e.g., Avinger & Jones, 2007;Grayston & DeLuca, 1995;Heiman & Ettin, 2001;Reeker & Ensing, 1998;Sturkie, 1994).…”

Child sexual abuse poses serious mental health risks, not only to child victims but also to non-offending family members. As the impact of child sexual abuse is heterogeneous, varied mental health interventions should be available in order to ensure that effective and individualized treatments are implemented. Treatment modalities for child victims and non-offending family members are identified and described. The benefits of providing on-site mental health services at Child Advocacy Centers to better triage and provide care are discussed through a description of an existing Child Advocacy Center-based treatment program. Recommendations for research and clinical practice are provided.

“…Para garantir o melhor interesse da criança, a literatura propõe que, durante sua escuta, a forma de ela se expressar e até mesmo seu silêncio devam ser compreendidos e respeitados incondicionalmente (Barbosa, 2007;Heiman & Ettin, 2001;Pfeiffer & Salvagni, 2005). A confiança nos adultos, perdida em virtude da dinâmica do abuso e suas particularidades, deve ser resgatada pelo profissional por meio de um vínculo seguro (Azevedo, 2001;Dobke, 2001;Goodman, Bottoms, Rudy, Davies & Schwartz-Kenney, 2001;Juárez-López, 2004;Junqueira, 2002;Pfeiffer & Salvagni, 2005).…”
