INSERIRE I TITOLI Violence being a problem in itself Violence serving as a symptom
MENS EXPANATIONS How does the man explain his own violence? Externalising – blaming others (partner, alcohol, etc. ) 2. Denial – the violence has not happened 3. Minimisation – “it was only a little quarrel, I barely touched her” 4. Fragmentation – “mostly I’m a good guy, I have only slapped her a couple of times” Why are these strategies used? It makes the violence possible. Guilt and shame cause active repression of the violent incidents and so the violence will no longer seem to be a problem, or even to have existed.
INSERIRE I TITOLI HOW DO MEN WHO USE VIOLENCE PRESENT THEIR VIOLENT PROBLEM? • • Being reluctant to talk about the violence Blaming the victim(s) Family matter Mutual responsibility Caused by social problems Caused by alchohol and drug problems The women are responsible
MEETING VIOLENT MEN How to talk about violence Direct questions No contempt Understanding Warmth Attentiveness Supportiveness Techniques: be attentive and interested, willing to learn, be concrete and specific (who, where, how, what, etc. ) Ask a lot of questions – ask for details Ask with respect Avoid “why? ”
TREATMENT PRINCIPLES Treatment principles: 1. FOCUS ON VIOLENCE -Detailed and expanding reconstruction of the violence (behaviour) 2. FOCUS ON RESPONSIBILITY -Focus on choices and intentions. Get in touch with own need for control and own control strategies (responsibility) 3. FOCUS ON THE CLIENT’S PERSONAL HISTORY -Re-establish the connection between own “life learning” on masculinity, manhood, attitudes towards women etc, childhood experiences, significant aspects of adult coping strategies and the use of violence (connections) 4. RECOGNISING THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE VIOLENCE
