DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

The Orr Domestic Violence Intervention program was developed to provide an opportunity for education to those who choose abusive tactics to gain power and control over intimate partners. Our program follows the “Duluth Model,” which is a nationally recognized batterers’ intervention program. The program acknowledges that violence is a learned behavior and can be unlearned. Our goal is to prevent domestic violence, eliminate the re-victimization through education and collaboration. Orr Psychotherapy Domestic Violence Intervention Program is part of a community response to domestic abouse and not the sole means for ending domestic abuse.  This program targets changing violent behaviors, not salvaging marriages or relationships.

Men's Domestic Violence Intervention Classes

Domestic violence can be defined as the use of verbal abuse and physical force between husband and wife or between couples in an ongoing relationship. It may start with angry words and a shove or a slap.  Once a pattern of abuse is established, the assaults can become more frequent and more violent.  It may result in permanent physical injury or even death.  It leaves the persons involved feeling isolated, angry, disappointed, lonely, and bitter.

Program Objectives

  • Educate the offender about what domestic violence is and the dynamics in order for the offender to learn to identify his/her own abusive behaviors.
  • Facilitate the offender acknowledging responsibility for abusive actions and consequences of actions.
  • Educate the offender about non-abusive, adaptive and pro-social relationships.  This includes avoiding actions such as stalking and learning better communication skills.
  • Identify and offer alternatives to the offender’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that facilitate abusive behavior.
  • Educate and increase the offender’s skills in problem solving conflict resolution.
  • Teach the offender self-management techniques to avoid abusive behaviors.
  • Identify and decrease the offender’s deficits in social and relationship skills.

Women’s Domestic Violence Intervention Classes

No victim can get real justice when only some victims are deemed legitimate.  Every victim counts and every abuser must be held accountable.  The existence of female perpetrators and male victims confronts many of our most firmly held beliefs about women, men, sexuality, power, and sexual assault.  It challenges our very notions about what sex is.  However, blaming only one gender for domestic violence in our society polarizes men and women, when we should be working together. To enroll for classes, or inquire about schedules and fees, please contact us, or call 402-309-3230.
