Patients as Victims Sexual Abuse in Psychotherapy and Counselling
Derek Jehu, University of Leicester, UK with specialist
contributions from John Davis, Tanya Garrett, Linda Jorgenson and
Gary Schoener There is growing concern at the number of complaints
about sexual abuse of patients while undergoing therapy. This book
discusses the ethical proscription of sex between therapists and
patients, and the legal and professional regulation of abuse in
both North America and Britain--including many very recent and
important legislative developments. The author looks at
characteristics which appear to place therapists at risk of
abusing, together with some pre-conditions necessary for the
occurrence of abuse. He also discusses certain characteristics
which render patients vulnerable to abuse, the consequences of
abuse for them, and the treatment of the problems they present.
Practitioners and trainees in the professions of clinical
psychology, psychiatry, nursing, counselling and social work will
find this volume essential reading, particularly as it offers
detailed guidance on treatment of abusive therapists and victimized
patients. This book appears in The Wiley Series in Psychotherapy
and Counselling Series Editors: Franz Epting, University of
Florida, USA, Bonnie Strickland, University of Massachusetts, USA
and John Allen, University of Brighton, UK
