What is a Triage Counsellor?
Triage Counsellors are qualified social science professionals, who have clinical experience working with children and families, including in child protection, family support, family and domestic violence.

Triage Counsellors assist parties in family law matters by conducting confidential risk assessment to assist in identification of appropriate support services, safety planning and case management. This help is targeted towards families who are at high risk as a result of family violence, mental health, drug and alcohol misuse, and child abuse and neglect.

Triage Counsellors have a statutory appointment to the role of ‘family counsellor’ (Section 281(1) of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia Act 2021), to provide family counselling as defined under Section 10 of the Family Law Act 1975 (Cth) (FLA).

What does a Triage Counsellor do?
Triage Counsellors undertake a range of activities within the provisions of the FLA including:

Reviewing responses to the Court’s Risk Screening Tool (Family DOORS Triage)
Conducting reviews of filed material to further inform risk screening and risk assessment
Conducting video interviews with identified parties, in order to further formulate risk assessment and analysis, including identifying protective and supportive factors
Co-designing and developing safety and well-being plans with individuals, and where appropriate and necessary, undertaking direct referrals to identified agencies and services

Other great reasons to become a Triage Counsellor
In addition to rewarding work and competitive remuneration, the Triage Counsellor position offers the following benefits:

A 15.4% employer superannuation contribution rate
Salary packaging options
