The book aims to explore the exciting opportunities offered by a
systemic approach for mental health professionals and
psychotherapists when working with families and other systems where
domestic violence in intimate relationships is of concern. The main
purpose of the book lies in the application of systemic thinking to
safety and to understanding the complexity of domestic violence on
family relationships over time.
The authors outline their approach to these complex issues based
on their eight years of joint experience in the Reading Safer
Families project. They draw from a broad field of family
psychology and systemic psychotherapy to distil the theories,
methods and techniques most helpful to practitioners working in
modern public and voluntary agencies. Their systemic approach
to issues of risk, responsibility and collaboration provides a
coherent framework within which to integrate practice. The
book also provides a practice orientated and detailed approach to
risk assessment, risk management and family reunification.
This book will be of interest to practitioners in clinical
and educational psychology, social work, nursing, psychiatry,
probation, health visiting, counselling and psychotherapy, who work
with individuals living in intimate relationships where violence
may be of concern, and also to practice supervisors, trainers,
trainees and students in these disciplines.
