Don't miss "Overview of Cycles of Domestic Violence" on Jan 23rd!

Jila Behnad — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 16:00:00 GMT

Working with clients affected by domestic violence requires more than clinical skills, it demands depth, insight, cultural attunement, and the ability to hold complex trauma with clarity and compassion.

That’s why we’re inviting you to a unique, specialized workshop designed specifically for mental health providers:

Overview of Cycles of Domestic Violence

with Pouneh Azadi, LMFT Chief Clinical Officer, Restorative Pathways

Domestic violence is not a single event, it is a cycle shaped by trauma, attachment, power dynamics, and generations of learned survival strategies. Many therapists feel unprepared or overwhelmed when working with DV cases. This training gives you the grounding, structure, and clinical confidence you need.

Why YOU should join this training:

You will learn how to see the cycle, not just the crisis.

You’ll sharpen your ability to assess risk and safety.

You’ll learn practical, trauma-informed, culturally sensitive interventions.

You’ll become more prepared to support survivors and to recognize patterns that often go unseen.

This is not just another CE workshop.

It’s a clinical deep dive led by a highly respected expert who has spent her career working with vulnerable populations and complex trauma.
