Adolescent Sexual Reactive & Trauma Treatment
Serenity Counseling & Resource Center, Inc.’s outpatient Adolescent Sexual Reactive & Trauma Treatment Program provides individualized clinical treatment to youth/adolescents (male and female age 8 to 17) with sexual inappropriate/sexual harm/sexual aggressive/sexual acting out behaviors but have not been adjudicated for a sexual offense. Staff are trained in trauma-informed care to ensure quality and appropriate services are provided to youth/adolescents participating in the program. Prior to receiving services, the youth/adolescent must participate in a clinical evaluation conducted by a trauma-focused licensed clinician with specialty certifications as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Clinically Certified Cognitive Behavioral Therapist who also assists with overseeing treatment provisions. Evidence-based practice strategies and clinical interventions are implemented to assist the youth/adolescent to recognize and address sexualized behaviors, cope with the youth/adolescent’s own trauma, redirect/eliminate inappropriate thoughts and actions, prevent victimization and/or deter re-victimization, understand risk factors of engaging in sexualized acts, and develop coping skills to self-regulate/control sexual reactive behaviors.
