What you will be doing

  • Provide high quality, responsive counselling and groupwork (therapeutic and psycho-educational) interventions which respond to the needs of a diverse range of individuals, groups and communities.
  • Assist clients affected by family violence (including children who experience or witness family violence) and engage individuals who use violent behaviours in their relationships to change.
  • Ensure effective interventions through sound case formulation, planning, review and closure processes and appropriate reporting and referrals.
  • Work collaboratively with other services to enable coordinated case management support that is sequenced and tailored to the needs of clients.
  • Promote client safety through universal holistic screening and risk assessment utilising the Detection of Overall Risk Screen (DOORS) tool.
