Sometimes you just need to empty your mind, get away from it all and explore what's around you.

Unexpected things happen when you are brave enough to open yourself up to new experiences and new horizons. Of course, we need to trust that we will be safe enough to even look up from the comfort of the familiar, be that the familiarity of sadness, rejection, fear, or any other habitual way of being.

So I encourage you to just look up a little, look around you a little more, and trust in yourself enough that you can stay safe even in unexpected or uncertain territory.

There is beauty all around you that you perhaps are avoiding, so be brave just a little and be willing to take a small risk so that you reset your mind and open your heart to new experiences.

Another excellent CPD opportunity for local counsellors on Pre-Trial Therapy Training. A must if your client is going to court.

JAAR is committed to the continued professional development of our counsellors. If you are a professional working with victims & survivors or witnesses of crime, we would like to invite you to join our upcoming Pre-Trial Therapy Training (PTT) with Jill Swindells of Qual Consultancy.

PTT has a lot more relevance to our work as counsellors & therapists than many seem to think. There is an inherent danger in seeing it as a niche specialism, particularly since the introduction of GDPR. PTT may be relevant to any of our clients who have been victims or witnesses of any crime at any time in their lives, regardless of whether they are already involved with the criminal justice system or are seriously intending to report the crime in the future. This is because circumstances, situations and decisions may change – clients might decide to report during or post counselling; clients may end up in court due to someone else reporting; shelved cases might return to court due to new evidence emerging & so on.

If clients who have experienced a crime are unaware of the implications of having ‘generic counselling’ we have failed to fully inform them and work appropriately. We cannot guarantee confidentiality as client notes & records might be requested or subpoenaed. The PTT Guidance has implications for how we ‘should’ work from the outset with all victims & witnesses of crime to achieve fully informed consent; & if too late, how we ‘should’ work as soon as we are aware of the situation regarding Criminal Justice System involvement.

This workshop covers all you need to know & includes an interactive PowerPoint presentation, detailed handouts for making additional notes, experiential exercises & plentiful resources. It focuses on adults & highlights the differences for children/young people, pre-trial therapy guidance, but also how it might inform other legal issues/interactions with clients/stakeholders.
