FOCUS on Healthy Sexuality

Let's Talk About Sex
Sexual aggression by adolescents destroys lives and families. Ostracism and punitive responses drive youth to further offending behaviors without addressing the actual problem. While a number of workbooks address sexually aggressive youth, many of their concepts require more cognitive work than is often realistic for such clients. Tim Webb, LPC, wrote FOCUS on Healthy Sexuality to help clinicians provide youth with a simple and effective way to learn the necessary skills to be safe. All of the techniques in the workbook have been proven effective in multiple treatment programs. The FOCUS concept is simple: Formulate an understanding of the problem, Organize a response, Commit to a plan, Undertake action, and Succeed in safety.

FOCUS on Healthy Sexuality introduces "The Cliff," which is a simple, practical, yet powerful, way of assisting youth in first identifying their risk factors, then understanding their interplay and, finally, developing strategies to manage them on their own. Youth are introduced to practical ways to manage acting out impulses of both a sexual and non-sexual nature. Many sexually aggressive youth have their own trauma histories, which FOCUS on Healthy Sexuality addresses with simple, practical, and powerful techniques.

Youth who have offended sexually can often be best managed in a community setting. FOCUS on Healthy Sexuality assists the treatment team and youth in developing a comprehensive Safety and Supervision Plan to assist the youth in being served in the community. FOCUS on Healthy Sexuality also provides the clinician with a practical and powerful workbook to assist youth individually, in group therapy, or in family therapy.
