Stutey, Diane; Clemens, Elysia V.
Professional School Counseling, v18 n1 p206-216 2014-2015
Sibling abuse is a serious phenomenon in our society that often goes unaddressed. Victims of sibling abuse experience psychological effects similar to those of child abuse (Caspi, 2012; Wiehe, 2002). The purpose of this article is to provide school counselors with a definition of sibling abuse and a five-step model to recognize and respond. A decision-making tree for working with students and families serves as a framework for preventative and comprehensive services.
