Details: this course explores the means to develop a powerful working relationship with clients who have experienced domestic violence, through respect, fostering control, setting boundaries and being trustworthy. Concepts such as non-judgmental acceptance and empowerment are explored. There will be opportunities to practise basic counselling skills including listening and responding in ways that empower clients. We explore ways to make any discussion more safe and effective, such as by acknowledging the stage the woman has reached, her external safety and boundaries of confidentiality. A framework for structuring a session is presented along with basic guidelines for building and maintaining an effective working relationship.
