The training programme is composed of fifteen sessions (2 days per week over a 3 month period) in a combination of lectures, exercises and role-plays.

The programme offers a pragmatic and comprehensive approach to working with the myriad of complex issues when working with survivors of all forms of violence. The course is framed within a feminist conceptualisation of violence and multicultural ideals, which challenge and deconstruct oppressive practices and promote anti discriminatory practice.

The course explores world healing models and offers a holistic approach to working with survivors. The promotion of standards of good practice and effective strategies are integrated throughout the programme. This course is aimed at women doing direct work within the violence against women field, such as counsellors, key-workers and support service workers. Previous counselling knowledge is desirable.
