Working With Sex Offenders: A Clinician's Ability to Work Through Biases and Contextualize A Client's Reality From A Systemic Perspective

Currently there are approximately 750,000 Sex Offenders in The United States. Mental health providers offer services to this population as either a condition of probation, or as a community service. It is not uncommon for clinicians to have strong biases concerning Sex Offenders. However, it is also not uncommon for clinicians to come into contact with the Sex Offender community at different points of their career. It is the focus of this workshop to provide clinicians a systemic and contextual approach to prepare them for when a Sex Offender requires their services. By demonstrating a systemic perspective, this workshop aims to provide clinicians a different outlook, and the ability to contextualize the reality of Sex Offenders. The presenter will provide insight based on experience working with the Sex Offender population in Florida, and the personal journey towards understanding the population and becoming therapeutically useful. This workshop will allow participants to examine their own assumptions, and to potentially create an awareness that could be applicable across their therapeutic practice.
