Learn about your attractions and change your life for the better.

Until now, there hasn’t been much help available if you have sexual interest in children. I designed this course as a frontline for folks who struggle in silence, whether you are simply avoiding feelings toward kids, are thick in the battle to control urges, or have already crossed the line. Knowing about where these feelings came from will help you learn what basic needs you need to fulfill to take control of them. When you do that, you start to feel better about yourself and can plan for a brighter future. That is the gist of this course.

Professionals: Discover Cutting-Edge Therapeutic Techniques for Minor-Attracted Persons.

Grounded in the latest sexuality, sex offender, psychology, and related research and theory, the course also functions as a detailed ‘how to’ introduction to providing therapy to individuals attracted to minors, those who use child pornography, and those convicted of sexual offenses against children. You’ll see how to conceptualize both the problem attraction and the person to provide truly helpful therapeutic support for positive changes.

Course Overview and Content

You’ll learn not only through over 3.5 hours of animated video lectures, but also self-tests, posters, articles, links, and music videos. Most of the material is presented in a nontechnical way that is easy to grasp.

We start with figuring out if you are close to actually doing something to a child, and whether you need more help than this course. Based on what you learn from that self-test, you can also see where you need to focus most of your effort.

We spend a lot of time discussing keeping yourself and others safe, starting with the immediate risky situations and ending with how to live your life so those situations are no longer risky. This part is where you learn multiple lines of defense that include internal and external changes and strategies.

Then we talk at length about where these feelings come from and the different paths to developing attraction to minors. This helps you make sense of the attraction and the various needs involved. Once you know that, you can figure out what to do to meet those needs without the fantasies and thoughts.

We end with a conversation about the good life, the areas that are included in it, and why you deserve it. We also discuss how you can become aware of your self-worth or value as a person. This knowledge is critical to satisfying relationships with others and yourself, and overcomes the ‘label’ you have been living with until now.

Who is This Course For?
