Many practitioners feel at a loss when working with people who use violence or aggression. In this episode, Peregrine Research Associate Dr Caitlin Miller talks to Dr Lisa Warren, a forensic and clinical psychologist and Clinical Director of Code Black Psychology, about working with people who use aggression or violence as a mental health practitioner. They talk about identifying and intervening with risks of harm to mental health practitioners and to others, and practical strategies practitioners can use today and in the future when working with this population.

 The Peregrine Rural Mental Health Podcast began as an idea from rural mental health practitioners. Too busy to watch webinars or attend workshops, the practitioners did say that they often spent a long time in the car, travelling to their rural workplaces. Therefore, we at The Peregrine Centre have produced a series of episodes, each about an hour long, to help practitioners upskill and expand their mental health practice, all from the comfort of their own headphones.

We bring to you experts in their field to teach you about the topics you requested and to answer the questions you asked. Each episode is published on our digital Learning Platform, along with a curated list of resources for those who want to explore further. For free access to our digital learning platform and to suggest topics for future episodes, please visit our website: theperegrinecentre.com.au
