Therapists and counseling professionals receive a wealth of training in mental health disorders and therapeutic techniques, yet they do not often receive training specific to working with domestic and intimate partner violence survivors. While therapists may reach for therapeutic treatments for trauma when working with this population, it is vitally important to understand the complexities and nuances of domestic and intimate partner violence in addition to any evidence-based treatments. This session will dive into those complexities, how they intersect with therapy, and how community resources can also be beneficial to clients.
