Trauma-Informed Care With Individuals Who Experience Intimate Partner Violence: Evidence-Based Strategies for Detection and Intervention (With CE)
$40.00
Presenter: Dr. Katherine Iverson
Overview:
Past and recent experiences of psychological, physical, and sexual forms of intimate partner violence (IPV) are all-to-common experiences for individuals who experience mental health difficulties. Yet, clinicians often report limited knowledge about IPV and best clinical practices. The purpose of this webinar is to provide clinically-relevant information regarding the linkages between IPV and psychosocial health difficulties and describe evidence-based practices for trauma-informed identification and intervention in the context of mental health care.
This presentation is based on Dr. Iverson’s 20 years of clinical and research experience focusing on intimate partner violence (IPV) detection and treatment, her extensive knowledge of the IPV literature, and a recent clinical article she co-authored (Doyle, Knetig, & Iverson, 2022). Dr. Iverson received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers for the impact of her research on IPV practice and policy within the Department of Veterans Affairs. She has over 100 peer-reviewed publications on IPV and related topics (e.g., trauma and PTSD) and has served as PI or Co-I on several federally-funded grants focusing on IPV screening and/or treatment.
Learning Objectives: Intermediate Audience
- List at least three types of intimate partner violence (IPV) and impacts on individuals’ psychosocial health
- Describe the rationale for integrating trauma-informed care principles in mental health treatment with women who experience IPV
- Identify at least three topics that are potential focus areas for individuals who experience IPV
