LSC Psychology invites you to an engaging evening of learning and connection with our clinicians in the Sydney CBD.
About this Event

This three-hour interactive session is designed for criminal lawyers interested in deepening their understanding of the psychological aspects of client matters. Together, we’ll explore:

  • How psychologists can best support legal practice in criminal matters
  • The differences between the different types of reports, and how each can assist your work and your clients
  • Insights into offending behaviour and treatment options available to clients entering and exiting the criminal justice system

The evening will include a case presentation and group discussion, as well as time to network with colleagues from both the legal and psychology professions over drinks and canapes. You’ll take away practical psycho-legal tip-sheets that may be helpful in your day-to-day practice.
