On April 20-21, the New York Association for Marriage & Family Therapy (NYAMFT) will host its annual conference, “Breaking the Silence: Recognizing, Responding and Treating Childhood Sexual Abuse.” Presented by NYAMFT and co-sponsors Syracuse University’s Department of Marriage and Family Therapy and the David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamics, the event will take place at the Embassy Suites,

The conference will include presentations by Catherine Diana, LCSW, to help participants become familiar with sex offender typologies, and identify differences between sex offenders and sex offenses. Focus will also include incestuous family dynamics and sex offender treatment. The workshop will present on the family systems approach, and how to teach families about boundaries and safety planning. Reconciliation and/or reunification therapy will also be addressed.
