Note: The 4th Edition of Pathways is now available. Click here.
Pathways Third Edition is the refined and expanded workbook based on 10 years of client use. Using more exercises, text, and new illustrations, clients learn about the thinking and feelings that are part of their sexual behavior problems.
Pathways presents the assault cycle and relapse prevention techniques as tools for understanding and prevention.
Pathways helps clients look at the maintenance behaviors that keep them cycling through anger, boredom, and other feelings that feed their cycles. Education toward appropriate behavior and basic sexuality information helps clients to redress their social deficits. Victim empathy issues are addressed in three chapters, including an empathy scrapbook homework assignment, clarification, and restitution.
This accessible, down-to-earth workbook and teaching tool leads the client toward a new life as a responsible member of his or her own sexual abuse prevention and safety team, a person who will have no more victims. By signing a contract with significant support people, clients recognize and formalize a list of people who can help them continue a life that includes accountability for their actions.
Pathways is one of the best resources available for working with youth coping with sexual behavior problems. (2001)
