DOMESTIC ABUSE
Leolyn, called to make his first appointment and said he was persuaded by a friend to attend counselling to control his anger.
As he don’t like to be helped in person his friend refer him to online counselling.
In short Gary was a perpetrator of physical abuse against his intimate female partner, Julian, who is 22 years of age. The couple have no children but his partner has recently expressed a desire to have a child with him.
The client is 28 years old and a labourer by occupation. He has only had casual/ contractual employment and has been subject to periods of unemployment, the longest being three months.
Leolyn’s history revealed that he had previous relationships, without children, that ended as a result of his violent and abusive behaviour.
According to Leolyn no serious harm has been dealt to his current partner; he has not been officially charged by police for assault.
He claims that his abusive behaviour is restricted to behind closed doors or only in the home.
At the time of beginning counselling Leolyn was unemployed and renting with his partner in a shared house with another couple.
