女性以许多不同的方式从创伤性暴力经历中恢复和治愈。这项研究是富兰克林县妇女和暴力项目的一部分,探索了18名有暴力史、药物滥用史和参与精神健康和/或药物滥用治疗系统的妇女的康复经历。人种学访谈表明,虽然专业干预可能是有益的,但可能还不够。事实上,它可能会重新正规化。个人、服务提供者和其他人的服务提供和治疗手段可能比实际服务更重要。女性往往发现,有爱心的人和安全的环境会带来最大的好处。重要的不是人们做了什么,而是他们如何做到这一点。
Women recover and heal from traumatic violent experiences in many different ways. This study, which is part of the Franklin County Women and Violence Project, explores the healing experiences of 18 women who have histories of violence, substance abuse, and involvement in the mental health and/or substance abuse treatment system. Ethnographic interviews suggest that while professional intervention can be beneficial, it may not be adequate. In fact, it can be retruamatizing. The means of service delivery and treatment by individuals, service providers and others, may be more important than the actual service. Often women find that caring individuals and a safe environment yield the greatest benefit. It is not so much what people do to help, but how they do it.
