Working with Domestic Violence and Abuse

Working with Domestic Violence and Abuse

Working with Domestic Violence and Abuse is divided into ten chapters; which introduce factual, lived experiences within a range of complexities that regularly surround the trauma of those affected by domestic violence and abuse, including coercive and controlling behaviours.

*All books are also available to buy on Waterstones and eBay.

They illustrate current processes for working with clients. These can range from interventions such as talking therapies, paper exercises such as the ©Trauma Tapestry, as well as up to date information about some of the most effective psychological processing tools, such as; EMDR (Eye movement desensitisation reprocessing), BSP (Brainspotting), Sensoriomotor Psychotherapy and VKD (Visual, Kinaesthetic Dissociation).

As we learn new and effective physiological treatments for those who have been targeted by violent individuals within relationships, outcomes are now far more suited to the post traumatic growth of those affected as a whole. An understanding into the basic functioning of the adrenal glands is crucial when working in the aftermath with victims of domestic violence, giving useful insight into how the body can quickly become overloaded with stress and how the response can manifest into a myriad of illness.
