Domestic Abuse therapists in Bowral, New South Wales NSW, Australia AU
Nest & The Relationhsip Retreat
Marriage and Family Therapist, Clinical PACFA accredited, Gottman Method Level 2
I have worked with many couples where they have either grown up in Domestic and Family Violence situations or they are currently living in that situation. Once full assessment is completed, if the DFV is found to be contraindicated to therapy outcomes I would refer on for individual therapy. In circumstances where it would be workable in therapy, I would work with the couple to explore healthy conflict management.
