At least 750,000 children a year worldwide witness domestic
violence. These children grow up with an increased risk of
developing symptoms associated with trauma and behavioural and
mental health problems. This book explores the cases of five young
people who have been victims of domestic violence. Allowing the
young people to speak out in their own voices, it provides deep
insight into how their experiences have affected their emotional
behaviour, the complexities of issues related to it and those
aspects of support which provide the greatest benefit to them.
Drawing on her own personal experience of domestic violence as well
as her professional expertise, the author emphasizes the importance
of giving voice to victims of domestic violence and highlights the
importance of acknowledging the emotional and spiritual lives of
victims in order to provide holistic support and understanding, and
it's potential to instigate healing. Hearing Young People Talk
About Witnessing Domestic Violence is a vital resource for mental
health professionals, social care workers, school counsellors and
all professionals working in the field of domestic abuse.
