Sexual Behavior and Offender Counseling, Psychotherapy, Telemedicine MF001_Geo1
Applied Behavioral Sciences’ sexual behavior program offers professional evaluations and treatment of individuals and families of individuals accused of, suspected of, or affected by misunderstood or abusive sexual behavior. Treatment includes evaluations and specific psychotherapeutic interventions for individuals affected by sex addiction or deviant arousal patterns, including: incestuous and pedophilic fantasias, sexual impulsivity and sadistic, violent, and assaultive sexual behaviors.
How it works:
This program is designed to provide the individualized monitoring and treatment needs of each client. This program explores appropriate and inappropriate psychosexual behaviors and offers monitoring, cognitive-behavioral and psycho-educational group psychotherapeutic interventions as well as individual counseling as needed. In treatment the patients disclose their testimony and will be taught to self assess levels of impulsivity, cognitive distortions, improved consequential thinking, victimizing affects on others, and grooming behavior acknowledgement. They are taught to interrupt offending cycles, and enact and maintain a safety and relapse prevention plan.
Licensed mental health professionals with forensic and deviant sexual behavior specializations provide services.

Testimonials
I am not angry anymore.
ABS Patient
I am so glad that alternatives are available for my clients. I often find it best to recommend immediate enrollment in ABS outpatient services for defendants arrested for domestic violence, assaults, or sexual offenses. This helps them not only legally but emotionally and behaviorally. I was instantly able to find services at ABS for clients that speak English, Polish, Russian and other languages.
Defense Attorney
The hardest decisions I must make are pertaining to the welfare for children suspected of abuse or neglect from homes shattered due to anger, domestic violence, addiction or sexual abuse. Especially when blame is pointed in all directions. Having birth parents’ cooperation with ABS Human Betterment Programs always helps with decisions leading to reunification.
