This chapter discusses how SFBT clinicians can work effectively to treat the trauma associated with victimization through human and sex trafficking. The chapter also addresses the threat for survivors of sex trafficking to be retraumatized (defined as the continual negative or oppressiveāovert and covertātraumatization from a helping professional while engaged in the process of trying to help a survivor) through their interactions with law enforcement, medical personal, and even mental health providers, even when these professionals are trying to be helpful. The chapter highlights the importance of building hope and meeting each survivorās specific needs, and outlines tips and strategies for SFBT clinicians working with this population.
