Class 1

Core Competencies in Intimate Partner Violence: Treatment struggles, differential assessment and the self of the therapist

Recorded Version

This course will provide a thorough training on the difficult and complex subject of domestic violence in two parts. Part one of the course will provide an overview of the problem, including defining domestic violence, understanding the various reasons victims don’t come forward, and how to assess for this in your practice. Before jumping into the work we will examine the response therapists have and explore how to be aware and contain responses that get in the way of treatment. The core struggles and clinical issues for therapists working with victims of domestic violence will be addressed, and fundamental tasks and common themes in treatment. Understanding the role of advocacy and when and if it becomes an appropriate role for the therapist.

When are abusive behaviors, not domestic abuse? Part two of this training will address the differential assessment when dealing with domestic violence. Abusive behaviors show up in many relationships. They are not always indicative of domestic violence. This is an essential part of our training and education to make the appropriate recommendation, provide the right treatment, and ensure safety. This training will go through the different possible etiologies of various abuses in marriage or intimate partnerships. We will also explore the ancillary issues in working with domestic violence such as being a help or resource to friends or family members as well as understanding the fundamental struggles when children are involved. 

6 Hours

Class 2

The Challenges of Addressing Intimate Partner Violence. What Are The Barriers?

Recorded Version

The problem of Domestic Violence, Intimate Partner Violence, or Spousal Abuse, which are all synonymous, is prevalent in society at large.  Many times clinicians will assign a mental health diagnosis to the behavior of either or both the perpetrator and the victim.  Granted,  a given diagnosis can be associated with or have developed from the impact of Domestic Violence.  However, the focus tends to be on the diagnosis while avoiding the issue at hand.  There are characteristics that provide an indication of Domestic Violence just as symptoms indicate a mental health disorder.  Yet, there appears to be a perceived notion that naming the problem of Domestic Violence is thought of as "judging" or "labeling."   

Providing accurate education around the problem, including a universal definition, allowing clinicians to process their thoughts and emotions regarding the issue as well, as providing strategies for addressing Domestic Violence can instill an improved comfort level on the part of the clinician who can then affect increased emotional/physical safety for the client.

Class 3

"Your Feelings Matter": An Exploration of the Psychological Effects of Intimate Partner Violence on "Silent Victims"

Recorded Version

Awareness about the effects of Domestic Violence (DV)/Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) on victims should extend beyond providing therapeutic support solely to adult survivors. Many studies have proven that children exposed to DV can be impacted negatively whether in the short-term and/or long-term. Children, while resilient, are a vulnerable population and are often identified as ‘silent victims’ or survivors of DV.  These young survivors experience a realm of emotions and physical responses relative to their exposure to DV.  In the blink of an eye, their norm changes and there is little to no time to adjust.

Class 4

The Intersection of Faith and Intimate Partner Violence (3 CE Credits - Cultural Competence)

Recorded Version

Faith or religious beliefs can present a barrier to safety for individuals experiencing Intimate Partner Violence (IPV). Likewise, many people outline their faith and beliefs as justifications for abusive behaviors. This workshop will provide a foundational understanding of the intersection of faith and IPV. Participants will gain strategies to support survivors as they navigate safety, their identified obligations to their religious beliefs, and their associated emotions.

This workshop will also address worker cultural humility and the need for culturally appropriate intervention strategies addressing the intersections of faith/religion, gender identity, race/culture and intimate partner violence.
