Intimate Partner Violence: Clinical Interventions with Women, Men,
and their Children brings into focus an ecological and clinical
frame for addressing the resulting psychological effects of
intimate partner violence (IPV). Aymer presents a perspective that
is often omitted from social work textbooks which are geared to
generalist practice, tending to expose students to macro-systemic
ideas (including criminal justice policies and procedures) relative
to IPV. However, this book expands clinical social work pedagogy by
reinforcing the need for students to go beyond macro issues in
order to deliver competent clinically-based interventions that help
women, children, and men work though the consequential effects of
partner violence. Designed for graduate social work students, it
expands the discourse- arguing that IPV is a complex
psycho-social-political-relational problem that must be understood
from a multi-theoretical perspective. Through case studies, theory,
research, and the author's clinical practice wisdom, this text
will: increase understanding of how to work clinically with women
affected by IPV, increase knowledge of how to work with abusive
men, heighten knowledge of how IPV affects children and
adolescents, expand knowledge of social cultural notions, and
explore men's role in terms of advocating against gender-based
violence.
