TAB ONE TAB TWO TAB THREE TAB FOUR TAB FIVE Couple or family counseling can be very dangerous for victims of domestic violence. It is important to stress that abuse is not the victim's fault. Counselors may need to address domestic violence and substance abuse with different interventions. Confrontational techniques are often not effective with victims of domestic abuse. Some examples of words to avoid with these women are codependency, enabling, and powerlessness. It is important to avoid codependency and enabling. because these concepts do not hold the batterer fully accountable for his behavior. Abusers are capable of transformation Not all alike: some show no apparent remorse; others are truly appalled at their behavior. Must be held personally responsible by the community. Must establish an environment that is nonjudgmental, nonviolent, and respectful of women and children. Must be willing to work through a long process in which he becomes accountable.
