I have extensive experience working with family harm, be it the victim or perpetrator. My role in private practice is not that of crisis work.
I am able to support individuals to implement comprehensive robust safety plans, to ensure safety. However, this is a case by case process, and each case is assessed first before being accepted to determine current risk to the client. I work most effectively in this space post episodes, to support the individual to rebuild their inner strength to make good decisions going forward.
