Childhood sexual abuse is one of the types of child maltreatment and it is an important problem which has increasing visibility on both national and international dimensions. Childhood sexual abuse has short and long term effects on a child that can not be fully repaired but can be diminished. These effects are negative effects that are important enough to direct the life of the individual by affecting adulthood. In social work theories and practices, there is an accumulation of knowledge and scientific background regarding child sexual abuse. More than one field of science and service units need to work together to understand and resolve child sexual abuse. Sociology, psychology, philosophy, and social policy are examples of some of these sciences. Psychology is one of the branches of science that works to improve the psychological effects of sexual abuse on the child and ensure a healthy life in adulthood, and also nurtures the scientific knowledge and practices of social work. Eclectic and interdisciplinary approach, as well as social service information, is used in individual and group interviews with clients at social service institutions and organizations. In addition to the work of psychologists and psychiatrists in the treatment of lifelong effects of childhood sexual abuse, social services are provided to children in the institutional care process and to individuals in the adulthood period after institution care. This article focuses on the use of Existential Therapy which is philosophy-based but also used in psychology, in social group work which is one of these support services and mezzo-level methods of social work. In this context, the aim of the review is to present how to carry out existential social group work, its functionality and effects for individuals who are victims of sexual abuse, in the light of the literature.
