Course details

Practical and creative responses are needed in one to one, and group, therapy with children, teenagers and adults whose lives have been affected by sexual violence. In this course the process of disclosure, appropriate responses, and practical and therapeutic interventions will be explored. We will address issues involved in working with clients of all ages who have experienced child sexual abuse themselves or are attempting to support a loved one (adult or child) who has been affected. Issues for children, adult survivors, family members, offenders, and professionals will be considered. Thus, regardless of your client profiles, you will take away new skills, theoretical knowledge, and enhanced understanding.
This training will introduce a range of interventions and approaches to facilitate therapy with young clients and with adults with whom talking therapy is not enough. We explore the use of creative mediums, non-directive approaches and focused intervention. A focus on skills development is maintained while a theoretical framework is built throughout the course to facilitate understanding and integration of course material.

We will utilise a range of teaching mediums including lectures, role-play, small and large group work, case studies, video, discussions, use of creative media and experiential work. Opportunities to discuss situations of concern will be provided.

Participants are advised not to schedule any work during the week to allow themselves engage fully in the course. Certificates of attendance are presented to each participant.
