Abstract
As increasing attention is given to the practice of group psychotherapy with sexually abused children, clinicians are using games and activities designed to address issues related to sexual abuse and its prevention. This paper describes how specific games and activities can be used in group therapy with child victims. These games and activities include: prevention films, role plays, and communication board games. Benefits and risks associated with the use of these resources are also discussed.Keywords
