Abstract
The healing of wounds caused by violence provides a space for recovery
from emotional and psychological harm caused to victims and offenders.
Trauma is an experience of both victims and offenders. Meeting such
needs creates an environment conducive to the reconciliation process. The
discussion of post-traumatic counselling as the process of healing the wounds
is addressed from both the restorative and reconciliation perspectives.
Involvement of victims, offenders and community members in a quest to
identify needs and responsibilities promotes healing among the parties
involved.
