Description
In this episode Dr. Jodi Midiri interviews TWO mental health professionals and discusses the delicate and relevant subject of Intimate Partner Violence (IPV.) Dr. Zappert is an expert on the topic and Dina is a social worker and survivor.
Together, they break down the misconceptions and stereotypes attached to IPV and survivors. We learn some shocking statistics about the sheer prevalence of abuse and, finally, we hear from the unique and jarring perspective of a survivor’s fight for help.
