Applying a Trauma-Focused Lens with Men Using Family Violence

Explore the therapeutic work that supports men to elicit personal responsibility

 

Online Masterclass
3 - 4 of December 2024

There is no denying that we need to engage differently in our work with men if we want to break the cycle of men’s violence against women.

The masterclass facilitator, Tony Johannsen will guide participants through a trauma-capable and informed lens to enhance their practice when working with men, help them feel confident in their capacity to do so, and build their emotional regulation, metacognitive awareness, and personal responsibility.

In this masterclass, Tony will share the psychotherapeutic technique of meeting these men 'where they are at’ to support practitioners in challenging men’s narratives and engaging men in their responsibility to change.

This masterclass will support practitioners to challenge men’s narratives and create opportunities for men to understand their choices, triggers, and behaviour by utilising empathic, humanistic engagement techniques.
