Familiarize yourself with common language used and statistics that impact the clients we see. Learn about themes and trends within relationships that will help to identify abusive patterns and communicate them to clients. Learn the goals of working with DV/SV victims/survivors and how to empower them to heal from within, including specific tools that can be used with clients in sessions.
