A Therapist's Role in Child Abuse Investigations (Pre-Conference Seminar B)
A Therapist's Role in Child Abuse Investigations
(Pre-Conference Seminar B)
To help coordinate efforts of therapists and investigators in child abuse investigations, this seminar discusses the process of the investigation and treatment in the context of working collaboratively to promote positive legal and psychological outcomes for child victims of abuse. Uniquely designed from an investigative perspective, the session strives to enhance the therapist's understanding of child abuse investigations and their impact on the child and on treatment issues. At the same time, the investigator benefits from a better understanding of the role of the child's therapist as a source of information, thus serving to enhance the investigator's case. Presenters demonstrate how to successfully incorporate the mental health professional into the investigation.
