What is pre-trial therapy, and what does it mean for therapists and clients?

We explored the basics of supporting a client therapeutically when they have reported to the Police about an incidence of sexual violence, and what practical matters needed to be considered between both parties when this happens.

We considered how, in this situation, therapist and client were required to navigate the legal world as well as the therapeutic realm. Consideration was given to our legal obligations, and how we consolidated these with our ethics and with therapy as it’s usually offered.
