- Title
A Narrative Review of the Literature on Recovery From Intimate Partner Violence: Developmental Processes and Facilitating Elements.
- Authors
Flasch, Paulina
- Abstract
The author utilized a narrative review to synthesize research on the recovery process of intimate partner violence (IPV) and introduced a continuum model that addressed developmental phases and specific elements. Developmental aspects of IPV recovery are summarized as (a) disentangling from the past, (b) coping with the present, and (c) moving toward the future. Recovery-facilitating elements are (a) informal and formal social supports and relationships; (b) psychological, emotional, and spiritual healing; (c) resources and education; and (d) social action and advocacy. Better understanding of IPV trauma and recovery may aid practitioners in assessment, conceptualization, and treatment. Further, it may aid survivors in better comprehending their unique recovery journeys
