Author’s Corner: Working with Domestic Abuse in the Counselling Room

Date and time

September 13 @ 10:00 - 11:00

About this event

Author’s Corner: Karin Brauner and Jeannette Roddy Discuss Working with Domestic Abuse in the Counselling Room

Working with Client Experiences of Domestic Abuse – A Handbook for Counsellors, Psychotherapists, and Other Mental Health Professionals

This is a unique handbook for counsellors and psychotherapists working with clients who have experienced abuse. Containing both the theory required to understand the client and helpful tips and ideas on how to work in session, it provides the foundational training for successful domestic abuse counselling work as the client moves through the recovery stages. Importantly, it also highlights the importance of counsellor self-care for anyone working with this client group.

In this workshop Karin and Jeannette will be talking about Working with Client Experiences of Domestic Abuse – A Handbook for Counsellors, Psychotherapists, and Other Mental Health Professionals. We will include one or two group activities around the topic and we’ll also have a Q&A at the end.

CALLING ALL COUNSELLORS/PSYCHOTHERAPISTS/COACHES AND RELATED ENTREPRENEURS THAT HAVE ALSO BECOME AUTHORS

Did you hold a book launch for your book?

– If you did, here’s your chance to double up on getting your message out there.

– If you didn’t, here’s your chance to present your book to an already captive audience – the onlinevents audience.

Karin Brauner is proud to present this new ongoing workshop series with Onlinevents where we will be

  • having a conversation about your book
  • having one or two practical applications exercises via breakout rooms or whole group conversations
  • showcase your book via a book trailer that you can use for your future promotions (this will be Karin’s gift to you for participating if you need/want it)
  • adding even more value to your readers and those who attend the live workshops or watch on-demand

How it works:

  1. get in touch with Karin and set up a meeting time
  2. on our first meeting, we will discuss your book and tweak the content of the workshop to fit with your book (Karin will already have the basic format for the workshop)
  3. decide on a 1hr or 2hr workshop timeframe, as well as the date and time (this will usually be on a Friday)
  4. Karin will fill out the agreed workshop content and send it through to Onlinevents for publishing
  5. We will have a further meeting or two to finalise the content of the workshop
  6. Show up about 15-20min before the start time, to get everything set up and running
  7. We will have tech support and Karin will be running the presentation for you so you can focus on your book and the audience
  8. Enjoy the event and have fun!

A word from Karin:

“After our successful – and fun! – workshop with Emma Redfern in 2023, I decided to go even further than that and work on a series of ongoing workshops with authors that I know – and others that will come through this ongoing series.”
