About the Workshop:
Hosted by the Central Coast Family Pathways network, this training is for professionals from legal and community services working with separated families on the Central Coast.
This workshop focuses on four high conflict personality (HCP) types that may be involved in domestic violence, including: borderline, narcissistic, histrionic and antisocial. The goal of this workshop is to help professionals gain insight into those who are dominated by reactivity and dominance rather than reasoning and stopping themselves. It will include strategies for practitioner safety, self-care and providing fully-informed services to people who need our help the most.
Light refreshments will be provided during a 1/2 hour break in each session.
