  17. Be Smart: Think before you send any pictures out, understand that nothing you post is private in cyberspace. Be Strong: Don't give into pressure to do something you are not comfortable with, like sending a nude photo. Don't let your friends give into any pressure. Be Responsible: Don't ask someone to send a nude photo to you and don't forward nude photos to other people if you receive one.

  18. When does treatment begin? Caught by the law Find information on electronic devices Notice red flags (e.g. isolation, depressed mood anxiety)

  19. Males versus Females Deal more with hands on offending from males Females send the texts after prompted by a significant other or peer.

  20. Case Example Teenager sexting inappropriate pictures and talking to older men through facebook. Teenager using KIK application to speak with others.

  21. Safety Precautions Understand the websites your child is viewing. Understand consent. Warning signs of depression: Isolation, withdrawal, irritability, tearfulness, rapid change in mood. Anxiety On edge behavior, physical features (biting nails) feeling paranoid

  22. Where do we go from here? Intake session: gather as much information as possible. Create a safety plan (how to block certain information, taking phone away at night, checking phones, have access to passwords, develop consequences) Identify the duration, frequency and intensity of behavior (when did it begin, how often and what is being sent?)

  23. Social and Emotional Triggers Peer Pressure Low Self-esteem or self-worth Curiosity *Word of caution when working with parents who have experiences of past abuse.

  24. Treatment Psychoeducation/Parent education: One of the first steps in successfully working through treatment. Parents must have boundaries as well. Build rapport CBT: Linking thoughts, feelings and actions Strength-Based Approach

  25. Treatment cont. Motivational Interviewing Relapse Prevention Solution Focused

  26. Duration of Treatment Varies case by case. Must carefully work on issues with the child/teen and be understanding of their feelings in order to make progress. Individual, family and group counseling are beneficial methods of treatment. Measure progress along the way (expect some clients to be unwilling at certain steps)
