Intimate Partner Sexual Violence (IPSV) is the most common type of
sexual violence and a common component of domestic violence, yet
most cases go unreported and service responses are often
inadequate. This book brings together advice for all those
professionals working with individuals who have experienced IPSV
and puts forward recommendations to tackle this prevalent form of
sexual violence. With contributions from leading experts on IPSV,
Intimate Partner Sexual Violence is a comprehensive guide to the
subject which bridges the gap between research and practice.
Multidisciplinary and international in approach, the book covers
key issues salient to all professionals - the impact of IPSV,
reproductive coercion, the physical and psychological indicators,
possible consequences of taking a case to court, and best practice
service responses. One section also addresses the risks and needs
of IPSV victims in different contexts, such as those in same-sex or
teenage relationships, immigrant victims, and those living in rural
areas or in prison. This is an authoritative resource for all
professionals who work with IPSV victims including counselors,
social workers, refuge workers, victim advocates, mental health
professionals, pastoral workers, lawyers, police, and health
practitioners.
