520 _aThis conference paper focuses on the effects on children of experiencing and/or witnessing psychological abuse, drawing on the author's practice experience. The author discusses the difficulty involved in detecting and defining psychological abuse, but argues that the effects can be serious and enduring. The author briefly discusses the Family Court response to psychological violence and recommends that this type of violence be given more regard in decisions about protection orders and contact (access). The author also recommends that more research be undertaken by the Family Court into different ways that the court can respond to psychological abuse, recognising that a one-size-fits-all approach will not suffice. Lastly, the author argues that psychologists and counsellors should work with legal professionals and the Family Court to assure the best outcomes for each case.
