ADDRESSING THE CULTURAL DIMENSIONS OF SEXUAL AGGRESSION TREATMENT: INCLUSIVE AND EFFECTIVE APPROACHES TO OFFENDER REHABILITATION Cultural Responsivity: Treatment of Sexual Violence explores how age, gender, identity, religion, and other socio-cultural factors shape the effectiveness of treatment for individuals who have engaged in sexually aggressive behaviour. Bringing together a panel of leading experts in forensic psychology, this volume provides a comprehensive examination of the necessity for culturally responsive practices in both clinical and correctional contexts. Detailed chapters cover a diverse range of issues, from foundational principles of cultural humility to interventions tailored for specific groups, including young people, transgender individuals, and those with strong religious identities. The authors discuss practical strategies to adapt treatment approaches to meet the needs of varied populations whilst encouraging students and practitioners to consider how broader socio-cultural dynamics influence therapeutic engagement and outcomes. Offering diverse biological, psychological and cultural perspectives, Cultural Responsivity: Treatment of Sexual Violence is essential reading for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in forensic psychology, criminology, social work, and counselling. It is also a valuable reference for professionals in clinical, forensic, and rehabilitative services who are committed to delivering culturally competent and ethically grounded interventions in the treatment of sexual aggression.
