Domestic Violence and Domestic Violence and TraumaTrauma
“The survivor’s feeling of fear, distrust and isolation may be compounded by the incomprehension or frank hostility of those who she turns for help. When the abuser is a husband or lover, the
traumatized person is the most vulnerable of all, for the person to
whom she might ordinarily turn to for safety and protection is precisely the
source of danger.” Judith Herman

Amnesty International Amnesty International Says: Says: "Most people who brainwash...use
methods similar to those of prison guards who recognize that physical control is never easily accomplished without the cooperation of the prisoner. The most effective way to gain that cooperation is through subversive manipulation of the mind and feelings of the victim, who then becomes a psychological, as well as a physical, prisoner.“
from an Amnesty International publication, "Report on Torture", which depicts the brainwashing of prisoners of war.

Impact of Trauma: Impact of Trauma: Accessing/Receiving Accessing/Receiving ServicesServices
“I had been coerced intro treatment by people who said they’re trying to help…
These things all re-stimulated the feelings of futility, reawakening the
sense of hopelessness, loss of control I experienced when being abused.
Without exception, these episodes reinforced my sense of distrust in people and belief that help meant humiliation, loss of control, and
dignity.” - Laura Prescott

In trauma work there is no such a thing as resistance—either a
person feels safe or they don’t. Our responsibility is to be the
safe person to be with and engage in treatment strategies
that the person feels safe and in control enough to
engage/experience.
