Supporting Teens Affected by FDV

Children and young people can be both directly and indirectly affected by family violence. It’s important to recognise children and young people as victim-survivors in their own right, not extensions of their parents, or ‘secondary victims’ of family violence.

Working with pre-teens to teenagers affected by trauma is a one-day interactive workshop. This workshop provides the knowledge and skills required to work with and engage with pre-teens to teenagers through the practical application of music and drama therapy.

Trauma-informed practice through music and drama therapy is a way of creating a safe and respectful relational process whilst supporting the re-establishment of safety, control, and attachment.
