Abstract | It is common for domestic violence in Australia to be understood as gendered violence where males are the dominant perpetrators and females the victims. NATHAN BEEL presents evidence and arguments that invite reconsideration of both the assumptions and the implications of viewing domestic violence from this framework. In particular, consideration is given to the ethical risks of the influence of gendered bias in relation to assessments and treatment practices. It is recommended that counsellors who work with domestic violence cases ensure their assessment and clinical practice maintain alignment with their counselling ethical codes of practice, and are congruent with recommendations from counselling outcome research. |
