Specifically, how “I” applied the Satir model to use family therapy as a method of intervention in four cases of juvenile sexual offense for these families to helped to instigate and create a change in the parent-child relationship. This study is a combination of self-narrative and action research in research methods. By describing and reflecting myself practical experience on self-dialogue, the conduct of this study is a dialectical and integrated process with subject consciousness. The core purpose of this study is to use these cases study to perform reflection-in-action and to search whether or not “I”, as a psychology counselor 1.Posses the required professional value and methods. 2.Holds what kind of philosophical perspective toward sexuality. 3.Treat imaginary crime or criminal actions. 4.Decided on family therapy chosen as the method of intervention. 5.Had what kind of interactions with the family in question and what changes came about from these interactions. 6.Through this treatment experience generated what effect and influence on the family in question？ Similarly, what kind of effect and influence did the treatment experience have on me？ 7.Through this treatment experience developed what kind of thought pattern or perspective toward the treatment of juvenile sexual offense. From my practical experience in counseling of juvenile sex offenders, I have summarized a few important discoveries. First, the occurrence of juvenile sex offenders is the result of interacting between the whole social-cultural environment and individual's sexual system including of physical, psychological, and social-cultural sub-system. Furthermore, in the course of counseling, these energies that can promote sexual juvenile sex offenders to change are : a sense of hope, trust, sense of reality, ability and sense of worth. Third, the original families of juvenile sex offenders have some characteristics : the atmosphere of closed system, the relationship type between the strong mother and the weak father, the confusing boundaries of parent-child relationship and children witness domestic violence. When I applied family therapy, I often noted a few steps : invited parents to be working alliance, focused on the communication process, detriangulation, emphasize on growth rather than the symptoms of the client, created an atmosphere of sharing sexuality and stressed on positive view of the family. Finally, I also put forward some ideas and recommendations on the applicability and challenges that family therapy used in Chinese society and the attitude and ability what counselors of juvenile sex offenders should have.
