How To Work With Vulnerability And Suicidality
Course Details
Often as lawyers/client-facing professionals, we can feel powerless in the face of our clients’ emotional difficulties and intense needs (many of which we are aware we cannot meet).
This session provides a deeper understanding of how to work with vulnerable, stressed and traumatised people, providing psychological insight and snippets from neuroscience.
With reference to case studies, the SRA Code of Conduct and the latest Law Society guidance on working with this client group, the session provides guidance on how to work with the most vulnerable (and even suicidal) clients and know how to take care of yourself emotionally while you do so.
