Description

Childhood sexuality is generally seen as a taboo subject and therefore to be avoided. However, we need to be able to get past this if we are to understand the issues well enough to be in a stronger position to tackle sexual abuse effectively. In this important course, childhood trauma expert Mary Walsh explains why we need to be tuned in to childhood sexuality so that we are better equipped to help children recover from the trauma of abuse.

This is one of three courses presented by Mary Walsh based on her extensive experience over many years of working with young children traumatized by abuse. Together the three courses offer a basis and framework for rising to the many challenges involved in working with children traumatized by abuse.

Sexual abuse can have devastating lifelong effects if the appropriate therapeutic steps are not taken in timely fashion and with appropriate skill and understanding. Exploring the complex issues around sexual abuse and childhood sexuality is therefore an essential foundation for developing high-quality practice that can make a positive difference to children’s lives. This course provides an excellent way of starting those explorations under the guidance of a highly respected pioneer in the field of childhood trauma and recovery.
