| The Banksia Program is an intensive six month psychosexual treatment program that is specifically designed for those struggling with troubling pychosexual issues. Some participants may also have a history of violating sexual boundaries. The program aims to assist the latter in confronting and taking responsibility for unhealthy patterns of behaviour and relationship and helping them to develop healthy ways of meeting their needs for intimacy.
The program provides comprehensive attention to all aspects of our clients’ lives. This safe and supportive environment encourages the client to face the challenge of getting to know themselves and to acknowledge their past while developing the skills to live a recovery lifestyle. The program structure includes intensive individual and group therapy. In addition to this, various non-verbal therapies add a unique and powerful adjunct to the work undertaken. We incorporate weekly art therapy and psychodrama therapy sessions for our clients. Psychoeducational modules are also an integral part of the program. The topics covered include:
In addition to the on-site programs, external spiritual direction is made available. It is our hope that through this multifaceted approach, our clients emerge with a greater sense of accountability and with the skills to move forward in a healthy manner. Our long term continuing care program provides monitoring and support for clients once they have left the program.
