Afternoon Program

"Collaborative Systemic Treatment of Family Violence" (3CE)

THIS IS NOT AN INTENSIVE

This program will illustrate the role of systemic interventions when violence either previously was, or currently is, happening in the family. In role plays with volunteers, Ms. Barrett will demonstrate how to integrate the specific interventions she introduced in the morning program.

Her model is a collaborative, resilience-oriented approach which helps families create healing plans that can provide lasting change. She will give particular attention to how the therapist can work systemically, while remaining attuned and co-creating secure, safe attachment with the family system.

Attendance at the morning program is a prerequisite for this afternoon event.

Box lunches are available to pre-order for an additional $11.00
