Please Join Us for a Two Part Series!
A Trauma Informed Look into Sexualized
Behavior, Treatment Options, and Engaging
Family Members
Part 1: Join us as we learn from a trauma informed perspective on identifying the different types or sexualized behaviors, differentiating the non-offending types from the offending types. We will discuss the prevalence of this type of behavior and signs/red flags. We will provide guidance regarding reporting of the behaviors when identified and discuss how to engage client and family in open and honest discussion regarding the identified behavior and finding access to appropriate treatment.
Part 2: (To be held on July 24th from 12-2PM).
Haley Biehler has a Master of Advanced Study in Marriage and Family Therapy. She has seen firsthand the impact the child’s ecological systems can have on the development and wellbeing of our children. Through study and experience she has seen how powerful taking a systemic approach to addressing problematic behaviors in the youth’s natural ecology can be. She currently is the clinical program supervisor of the Multisystemic Therapy (MST) and Multisystemic Therapy for Problematic Sexual Behavior (MST-PSB) programs at the Touchstone Health Services site in Tucson, AZ.
Drew Pease has a Master of Advanced Study in Marriage and Family Therapy. Over the past five years he has focused his work on the juvenile population, primarily those exhibiting sexual misbehavior, and who engage in sexual offenses toward another person or being. As a family therapist from training, Drew takes a systemic approach, with a trauma focus, when working with clients and families, as it has been identified that a systemic approach provides for greater outcomes in helping juveniles reduce the sexual harming behaviors and engage in meeting those needs in a more positive manner. He is currently a clinical supervisor with Grossman and Grossman Ltd.
