Posted by Mark Wheeler I have never used a groupwork modality working with issues arising from sexual abuse so I look forward to hearing more. Your work sounds amazing but making massive demands on therapist/facilitator, so I imagine supportive clinical supervision must be essential. Where the abuse coincides with traumatic-attachment I imagine phototherapy will have particular dimensions. I look forward to hearing more.![]()

Hi Craig,
I don't know if you're interested, & if you are I'd like to hear your response to the themes raised, in my book chapter "Male therapist Countertransference & the importance of family context" in Murphy, J (2002) "Lost for Words, art therapy in the treatment of sexual abuse", Bruner-Routledge, as very little seems to have been written about male therapists working with children who have suffered sexual abuse.
Best wishes
Mark
