Experiencias de profesionales de la consejería que ofrecen servicios de rehabilitación a la población de personas agresoras de violencia doméstica

This article shares the findings of a qualitative research that sought to learn about the experiences of counseling professionals. Five professional counselors participated in this research and shared the professional and personal impact they experienced in providing services with domestic violence aggressors. Due to the scarce information related to such experiences, this research complied with novel contributions for the field of counseling and other related professions. The conceptual framework that guided this research was accompanied by concepts under the Person Centered Theory, by psychologist Carl R. Rogers. The research instrument was developed using the three research questions, from which other sub-questions of inquiry emerged. The findings showed that the counseling professionals interviewed were humanized. They described their experiences as positive, and were satisfied and motivated entities in providing services with the population of domestic violence aggressors. Finally, no exhaustion or demotivation was found in these.
