Violance work
Violence outside the home
Aggredi is a form of therapeutic work focused on perpetrators of violence outside the home aged 18-49. The goal is for the client to stop violent behavior or reduce it. Aggredi offers the opportunity to deal with problems arising from violence on neutral ground. Trust, impartiality, respect and non-judgment are cornerstones when dealing with a customer.
We are located in Kuopio at Savonkatu 24. Contact Arja Mykkänen, the specialist in violence work at Aggredi, tel. 044 787 2879, arja.mykkanen@puijola.net or violence work expert Pasi Raatikainen, tel. 050 364 4888, pasi.raatikainen@puijola.net
