Taking Care

The Brazilian policy to combat sexual violence emphasizes the importance of protecting victims, as well as accounting for and taking care of the perpetrator. The aim of this paper is to describe one strategy that is being used to address difficult issues – such as the processes of offenders’ own victimization itself, the expression of sexuality and sexual desire for children – in the context of psychosocial interventions for adult sexual offenders against children and adolescents. The strategies adopted are based on psychodrama techniques, which facilitate the overcoming of emotional obstacles to these issues, creating a playful environment during the intervention, providing conditions for reflection, expression of feelings, decreased tension, and which contribute to integration and group engagement in the tasks. This option avoids a confrontational position and favours the development of empathy.

Intrafamilial Sexual Abuse

This chapter explores the decision of who to include in treatment. In integrative family and systems treatment (I-FAST), this is a case-by-case decision that in and of itself is considered an intervention. Guidelines for making this decision are offered. Two special situations are examined in detail: whole-family interviews as they relate to trauma and family interviews that include both survivor and perpetrator in cases of intrafamilial sexual abuse. Criteria for when and when not to conduct these interviews, along with detailed steps are outlined. Several case examples are offered covering a wide range of issues related to who to include in treatment are given.
