Key findings
Many counsellors and psychotherapists are lacking confidence in their awareness and understanding of FGM, including their safeguarding responsibilities. Only around 10% of respondents had knowingly worked with survivors of FGM.聽
Helpful factors when working with survivors of FGM included having cultural respect, knowledge and understanding, being non-judgmental and accepting and listening to the client. The most unhelpful was having a general lack, or assumption, of awareness or understanding.
Less than a quarter of respondents had undertaken any training with regards to FGM, although the vast majority expressed a desire to do so.
