Many couples seeking counselling are struggling with one or both person’s controlling behaviour. As clinicians we are required to accurately assess and respond to controlling behaviours. Most clinicians can correctly identify physically violent relationships as unacceptable but even physical violence within relationships can stem from different sources and require different approaches to be effectively resolved.
Clinical competence can be even more challenged by controlling behaviours that do not manifest physically. Such behaviours can include: chronic criticism, defensive responses to requests for change, isolating a person from their friends and family, signalling contempt and snooping. These controlling behaviours can also stem from different sources and deciphering which you are working with can be challenging.
This course will provide clinicians with the latest research about different types of control and violence including characterological and
situational domestic violence and will explore how the impacts of trauma on one or both partners can manifest in behaviours that are controlling.
Treatment approaches for different types of control in relationships are explored enabling most effective interventions for clients. Clinicians will be immediately equipped to implement their learnings in their work with clients.
