ploitation. It's a must-have bibliotherapy resource for any professional who works with children in mental health, educational or therapeutic settings. Created to complement the original, best-selling book Good Pictures Bad Pictures: Porn-Proofing Today's Young Kids, this guidebook contains 15 didactic, kinesthetic and artistic interventions gathered from diverse fields of study and tested by clinicians. Some represent classic techniques used in counseling and therapy work. Other interventions draw from the world of education. Still others are original and were tested by practitioners in the fields of education, play therapy, family therapy, and art therapy. Each intervention is clearly described and organized into three sections: Explanation, Intervention, and Considerations for Use. The guidebook also includes recommendations for choosing interventions based on a child's unique circumstances and history. Each intervention is research-based and references are included at the back of the guidebook. Children who are harmed by sexual exploitation deserve our very best efforts to help them heal from the negative impacts of pornography on their mental and emotional health, social skills, and future relationships. Counselors now have a powerful bibliotherapy tool to help their young clients and students understand and recover from the harms of pornography.
