Understanding Men Who've Been Sexually Abused and How to Treat Them, Mary Petersen. Understanding Men Who've Been Sexually Abused and How to Treat Them will change the way you see trauma in people, and it will help you become a better helping professional. The current statistics are: one in three women, and one in six men will be sexually abused in their lifetime - reported. So how many assaults are not reported? And why?? This workshop will make you look at the general population differently. It will help you understand the traits that are characteristic of people who have suffered the trauma of sexual abuse, specifically traits that are unique to male survivors. This seminar will explore why it is especially difficult for men to talk about their sexual abuse, and it will present this point (and other points) with personal, anecdotal evidence to illuminate the humanity of each survivor and how powerful their struggles - and recovery - have been. It will give you some tools to facilitate healing, specifically among men who most likely will have trouble processing what is probably one of the most difficult experiences of their lives, one that is often overlooked by many clinicians, and one that often interferes with everything else. This workshop could be the missing link to help you help your clients find their voice, find their peace, and reclaim themselves and their lives. Call 248-399-7447 to reserve your spot today Royal Oak, MI (2/24/13)
