This book provides the long history of male sexual abuse based on
the author's extensive clinical experience of working with children
and adult victims of sexual crime. It presents several sexual abuse
studies, focusing on the challenging art of psychotherapeutic
treatment.
Valerie Sinason is a major figure in psychotherapy.
The book offers an overview of how to work with some of the most
damaged members of society - children and adults with intellectual
disabilities who abuse others. Drawing on insight from two decades
of clinical work, the author examines how to assess risk and danger
in the forensic disability patient, ways of working therapeutically
with patients at all ends of the disability spectrum, and how to
support members of the patient's network. Combining psychoanalytic,
creative, forensic and systemic thinking, the book provides a
template for assessing, managing, containing and treating those who
present with multiple diagnoses, including cognitive and physical
disabilities, mutism, psychiatric disorders and autism. Both group
and individual approaches are examined. As our awareness of the
incidence of forensic patients who also have disabilities
increases, this work is a timely placing of the forensic disability
patient onto the clinical agenda, and has a wide application, being
of use to clinicians in the private consulting room, the community,
the secure setting and the prison.

the notion of disability as a powerful trauma that impacts upon
both the patient and those treating him.
