PCRC is able to conduct a Sexual Behavior Risk Assessment on you if you desire and need one. This evaluation provides helpful clinical information for the following individuals:

Those in the process of divorce.
Clients with online legal charges or accusations including child pornography.
Clients in the legal system for voyeurism, exhibitionism or contact sexual offences.
Those who are being accused of sexual harassment.
Physicians and Dentists being accused of sexual misconduct.

The SBRA includes an in-depth diagnostic evaluation of mental health, substance abuse and sexual issues. It also includes a number of objective tests that measure mental health issues, substance use, sexual addiction, and sexual misconduct. The data is collected and put into an in-depth, multi-page report. The report includes a statement of predicted risk for relapse and recommendations for treatment. This is very helpful information that attorneys can use in court cases. It is also helpful for ongoing treatment providers to use and help to ensure an appropriate ongoing continuum of care.

PCRC offers intensive treatment for individuals who have been involved with child pornography and other online sexual offenses. We know that there is a person behind each offense that gets an individual involved in the legal system. Often, that individual is hurting in his own life and dealing with his own trauma history. At PCRC, we don't just address the specific child pornography or offending issues. We focus on the patients' trauma and events that led up to the choice to cross legal boundaries. We also focus on attachment issues that can help the patient strengthen his connections to others that when done effectively, will help to reduce the chances of acting out in the future.
Much of the work consists of helping the patient in reducing his shame, taking responsibility for his actions and then developing empathy for others, and identifying how his behaviors have impacted others. When this is done, true recovery takes place.

Each patient will meet with a qualified therapist in multiple intensive individual sessions throughout the week.

Focus is also spent on addressing underlying mental health, trauma and family issues that are part of the overall clinical picture. Time is also spent on assisting the patient to understand, internalize and complete work on the 30 Task Model developed by Dr. Patrick Carnes.

The evaluation phase of treatment consists of the patient's first seven days at the center. During this phase the patient undergoes a multiphasic evaluation. The results of this evaluation are then used to develop an individualized treatment plan which is then explained to the patient and his family. We want to make sure that the patient and family are fully aware of what the treatment goals are and what is to be expected in treatment.

Each patient might have an opportunity to participate in biofeedback therapy, based upon the patient's treatment plan. Neuro-feedback traditionally refers to biofeedback conducted with brain waves. There are a number of different wave frequencies in the brain. Slower brain waves are associated with relaxation and imagery. Faster brain waves are associated with stress, phobias, trauma and ADD/ADHD. Neuro-feedback assists the patient in gaining significant control over their own brain wave frequencies. This in turn helps to increase and even eliminate their symptomatic patterns of stress, anxiety, phobias and PTSD. They are also able to manage ADD/ADHD symptoms. Neuro-feedback can also be used to treat depression. There is significant research that shows neuro-feedback is a successful treatment modality for generalized anxiety disorder, anger, panic disorder, PTSD, general muscle tension, phobias, depression, ADD/ADHD and addictions.

Daily, participants attend an activity group that consists of arts and crafts projects, game nights, movie nights, building projects, service projects and many more. These groups help build skills such as problem solving, strategy, open-mindedness, compassion, and empathy.

This relapse prevention plan will be discussed with the patient and the family throughout the course of the program so that everyone involved can have input into its development; this ensures the patient will receive full support of those closest to him.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a treatment that has been developed to assist patients who are suffering from trauma. The treatment can also be used to help reduce symptoms of other psychological disorders as well. The treatment focuses on stimulating each of the hemispheres of the brain intermittently, similar to what the brain does during REM sleep. By doing this in an awake and conscious state and targeting specific traumatic memories or events, the impact of the trauma can be reduced. The patient does not lose conscious memory of what happened but often time they are able to put it in a different place and effectively move forward without living in the past. Each patient will generally have a series of EMDR sessions during their stay at Paradise Creek.
