Is your family affected by violence and looking for support to break the cycle? Whether you are experiencing the impacts of domestic or family violence, or you would like help to address your own behaviour, the Specialised Family Violence Service is here to support you. In rural and regional communities, where services can be harder to access and privacy is important, this support is delivered in a safe, respectful and confidential way.

If you or your child would like to speak with a qualified counsellor about your experience of family violence, Centrecare offers a safe, non-judgemental space to talk and begin the healing process.

Our service works alongside individuals and families to strengthen safety, wellbeing and respect, supporting all those affected by family violence to build safer relationships and healthier futures.

Are you having problems with:

  • suffering from a pattern of coercive control;
  • abuse or violence in the family;
  • children exposed to family violence;
  • adolescent violence in the home;
  • being physically or emotionally abused;
  • experiencing put downs or verbal abuse;
  • being socially isolated from family and friends;
  • being forced or coerced into unwanted sexual contact/activity; and/or
  • being controlled financially by limiting or removing your access to money?

If you are experiencing any of the above, then this service may be of help to you.

Centrecare’s Specialised Family Violence Service provides intensive individual and family support including counselling and group programs to those effected by domestic and family violence, including young people and children who experience and witness family violence.

Individual or family counselling
Counselling is a confidential way that individuals and family members can discuss any issues and concerns. Counsellors are trained to assist you with identifying options and making choices that are right for you.

Child counselling and therapy groups
Individual counselling for children who have witnessed or have been exposed to violence have proven beneficial in increasing children’s resilience and reducing the risk of long term emotional, psychological and behavioural impacts associated with this trauma.

Adolescent counselling and therapy groups
