Problematic Sexual Behavior-Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for School-Age Children

PSB-CBT™ is a group treatment model originally designed to treat youth ages 7 to 12 who present with PSB. The PSB-CBT™ treatment approach uses concurrent groups for youth and their caregivers with combined multi-family group sessions about once a month. Active participation of a caregiver is required, with the caregiver defined as the person who provides primary care of the child in the home (e.g., mother, father, step-parent, grandparent, foster parent).  PSB-CBT™ shares the common theory base and core components of evidence-based programs (EBP) for PSB. Updated 2024.
