Description
In this book, two experienced members of a specialist Child Sexual Abuse team present an integrated factual and theoretical account of child sexual abuse, and provide clear guidelines for professional intervention. Part one describes the characteristics of child sexual abuse and presents a critical account of current explanatory theories. Part two details the steps to be taken at all stages of the intervention process from suspicion, through disclosure and validation, to therapy. '...as a headteacher I find myself considerably helped by this book. It provides factual information which I did not have before and it gives reassurance and confidence in a very worrying area of professional life.' Times Educational Supplement
