Writing in plain language accessible to all, Swiss psychiatrist Tschan, a consultant and trainer, explains how to deal with and prevent professional sexual misconduct (PSM) in various disciplines and settings including medicine, social work, residential care, churches and religious organizations, public and private schools, sports teams and leisure activities, the military, and the criminal justice system. The book is written from a survivor's perspective, although it also deals with offender rehabilitation. The author defines PSM, examines how and why it happens, and explores the impact of PSM on survivors, institutions, and perpetrators. In addition to discussing treatment of survivors, the author also describes methods for the assessment and rehabilitation of perpetrators. Difficult issues such as false accusations, delayed onset of trauma symptoms, and institutional liability are addressed. Summary charts and key points are included.
