Product Description
"Being a sex offender is not who you are. It is only a problem you have. It is a choice you have made. You are always free to make other choices, even when it doesn t feel that way."--The Road to Freedom

Treatment programs for sexual offenders require that the offender actively contribute to the change process in order to benefit from a program. The Road to Freedom, a comprehensive workbook written for the clients in a straightforward style, invites them to examine their individual behavior and circumstances surrounding their offense. The authors believe that offenders often respond to unmet emotional needs by engaging in deviant sexual activity and that support for a healthy lifestyle requires identifying these needs and finding other, healthy ways to fulfill them. Featuring the four-path relapse prevention model, this book encourages offenders to recognize and avoid high-risk factors which trigger thoughts and behaviors related to offending.

G. Kim Sutterfield, Ph.D.

I have been treating individuals who have committed sex offenses beginning in 1983. I have used several different workbooks over the years as an adjunct to individual, group and family therapy. This workbook is clearly the most comprehensive cirriculum that I have found. It is an excellent resource that covers various treatment techniques focusing on the myriad of problem sexual behaviors that result in the need for professional intervention. The chapters follow a thoughtful progression through treatment in a manner that challenges clients to look at their destructive behaviors without shaming them. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who works with men who have engaged in sexually abusive behaviors.
