SUMMARY:More Than You Can Handle: How Religion Can Be Used in Intimate Partner Violence
DESCRIPTION:Many Christians have heard the saying\, “God won’t give you more than you can handle.” This is often said to those who are experiencing hardships\, trials\, and tribulations. This line comes from a verse in the Bible (1 Corinthians 10:13)\, but it is not talking about hard things in life\, but rather temptations. As a result of this misinterpretation\, it has been used to victim blame people who are experiencing harm. Implying that the abuse comes from God\, and that\, if one’s faith is “strong enough\,” they can handle it on their own. We will not be arguing the merits of faith\, or the value of religion\, but rather looking at how Religious Trauma shows up in people’s relationships\, bodies\, and lives at large.  \n\n\n\nThis training will look at how scripture\, religious traditions\, and cultural norms are used to assert power and control in intimate relationships. How someone’s faith can be weaponized against them to cause harm. We will also explore the specific impacts on LGBTQ+ individuals in\, and from religious communities. Coming away from this training you feel more comfortable working with both your religious clients and those who have left their faith communities.  \n\n\n\nObjectives:  \n\n\n\n1. Breakdown the cycle of abuse in religious/spiritual contexts  \n\n\n\n2. Understand Religious Trauma and explore what it looks like in the nervous system  \n\n\n\n3. Recognize ways to support religious clients experiencing intimate partner violence  \n\n\n\n4. Identify special considerations for LGBTQ+ clients  \n\n\n\nTrainer Bio: Lindley King (they/them) is a Licensed Mental Health Therapist\, consultant\, and trainer in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle. They have strived to bring healing in the field of gender-based violence since 2011\, holding multiple roles including shelter advocate\, crisis line advocate\, and therapist. They are currently in private practice serving adult survivors of gender-based violence and multi-abuse trauma. Their specialties include religious and spiritual trauma\, LGTBQ+ issues\, and gender identity. Lindley works from a harm reduction model and social justice framework. They believe in a holistic approach\, recognizing that trauma comes from experiencing injustice and inequality and that we must not remain neutral in the face of harm. \n\n\n\nDates: This will be a two-part training from 10am – noon on September 4th and 5th. \n\n\n\nLOCATION: Via Zoom – link will be sent to registrants the day before. \n\n\n\nIf you’re interested in becoming a member and/or attending this training\, please contact me directly at Paris@endgv.org

SUMMARY:You Want Me To What??? Considerations for When Family Court Enters the Therapy Room.
DESCRIPTION:More and more therapists are being asked to provide information or services specifically for family law purposes – especially when there are cross allegations of domestic violence and mental health concerns. \n\n\n\nAttorneys\, evaluators\, and/or the courts want to know what’s going on in therapy\, what someone said or didn’t say\, and how that impacts their current situation. Clients may or may not want you to provide information. You might believe your notes or opinions could help your client or conversely\, you might fear they could make things worse! So what do you do? \n\n\n\nJoin Fran Schopick and Tracee Parker for an overview of Family Court and how it can create very challenging dilemmas for mental health practitioners. We’ll explore the risks\, benefits\, and options that may be available to you and possible impacts on the care you provide. We will also review State laws\, agency rules\, documentation\, and potential threats to confidentiality to help you thoughtfully and confidently respond to court-related requests.  \n\n\n\nThis training is intended for mental health professionals\, including supervisors in the mental health field but could also be useful to domestic violence advocates who are supporting survivors through family court cases. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives:As a result of this workshop\, participants will: \n\n\n\n\nUnderstand common Family Court terminology and the roles of various court-related professionals.\n\n\n\nHave increased knowledge of how Family Court can impact therapy.\n\n\n\nBe able to develop a thoughtful response to court-related requests from clients and others.\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Presenters: \n\n\n\nFrances Schopick\, JD\, MSW is an attorney with an extensive background in clinical Social Work and psychiatric research. She served on the Psychiatry Faculties at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in NYC and Harvard Medical School in Boston\, MA to research the underlying contributors seen in people with mood\, personality\, and psychotic disorders. She worked clinically with perpetrators as well as survivors of domestic violence and coercive control. Her experience has given her insights into the dynamics of high conflict families as well as the complex and nuanced challenges posed to the counselors who work with them.Now an attorney in WA State\, Fran represents health care providers undergoing Board investigations. To help licensees avoid such complaints\, Fran develops Disclosure and Informed Consent resources tailored to individual practice\, so that providers can simultaneously minimize counselor risk and maximize client care. Fran provides legal consultation to agencies\, counselors\, and other healthcare providers working with individual adults\, children\, couples\, and families\, often in “high conflict” situations. Fran speaks nationally on the importance of well-administered Informed Consent as well as the many factors that can affect clinical care. \n\n\n\nTracee Parker\, Psy.D. is the Justice for Families Project Manager at the Coalition Ending Gender-Based Violence\, where she has co-authored (with Dr. Anne Ganley) Intimate Partner Violence Impact Assessment – A process for collecting\, analyzing\, and presenting information.

SUMMARY:Transformative Justice and Intimate Partner Violence w/ Shannon Perez-Darby
DESCRIPTION:In the words of Shannon Perez Darby\, “Transformative justice has been a valuable tool for addressing violence outside of harmful state-based systems. As our movements have grown we’ve seen community members turn towards transformative justice practices to address the range of violence our communities experience. When faced with questions of domestic and sexual violence many community members can feel overwhelmed.This workshop is designed to support community members in building skills to better understand intimate partner violence (IPV) and explore the possibilities and pitfalls of transformative justice practices in addressing IPV. We will discuss how transformative justice practices can support people surviving abuse\, people being abusive and the communities who love them.” \n\n\n\nLOCATION: Via Zoom – link will be sent to registrants the day before. \n\n\n\nThis event is open to CEGV Membership\, advocates\, and community organizers. If you’re interested or know anyone interested in becoming a member and/or attending this training\, please contact me directly at Paris@endgv.org \n\n\n\n
