S1E5 Mental Health
Manage episode 323502160 series 3330749
The mental health impacts of sexual violence, abuse and exploitation are complex. To ensure the effectiveness of our mental health interventions post violence we need an intersectional understanding of the multiple manifestations of trauma. Whilst the diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder provides a framework to understand the process of trauma in survivors of sexual violence, to develop truly effective treatments, we also need to look at complex trauma. In this episode we find out what complex trauma is and why it’s so important we understand it, we learn about the mental health symptoms that stem from sexual violence, including online sexual exploitation, and we find out about the importance of mind-body approaches to healing after sexual violence. Our guests are Adesty Dulawan, clinical supervisor of World Hope International in the Philippines and teacher, researcher and mental health counsellor Abbie Fields. Find out more at svri.org.
