"This bookÖwill help change the paradigm that has gripped the mental health professions for so long and will be a positive boost for those who know there must be a better and more affirmative way to do this important work." -Dennis Saleebey, DSW Professor Emeritus School of Social Welfare, University of Kansas In this book, Kim Anderson demonstrates the extent to which individuals with histories of family violence can have "self-correcting" tendencies that promote their positive adaptation in overcoming trauma. These strengths, which often go unrecognized or underappreciated, can be used for healing. This book assists mental health practitioners in identifying, supporting, and validating the resilient capacities of their clients. Anderson provides new conceptual frameworks and clinical strategies for integrating resilience-oriented and strengths-based treatment with survivors of family violence. The book discusses resilience in survivors of childhood incest, children of battered women, and individuals formerly in violent domestic relationships. Key topics discussed: Dynamics and consequences of family oppression and violence The power of recovery and posttraumatic growth Assessments that capture client strengths, resilience, and acts of resistance Spirituality: making meaning of one's trauma and purpose in life This book challenges the premise that survivors who have suffered from family violence will remain wounded throughout life. Anderson underscores the resourcefulness of clients, and illuminates the many ways people prevail during and in the aftermath of family violence.

There are many myths about family violence: that it's only committed by men against their families; that it's only physical; that there aren't legal remedies for children or spouses to take action against violent family members. This book corrects the myths and provides the facts. Written with an empathetic tone, this text teaches about the warning signs and manifestations-physical, emotional, psychological, and economic-of domestic violence. Inclusion of the often-overlooked topics of elder abuse and violence against LGBTQ youth makes this text indispensable. Finally, a discussion of ways to report family violence wraps up this essential tome.

Family Violence or domestic violence has been termed differently as domestic abuse, wife battering, intimate partner violence, intimate terrorism etc in national and international literature available on the subject. Domestic violence is qualitatively different from all other forms of violence women face within public spaces as it occurs in intimate relationship in private spaces by the person one is supposed to trust or love. However, within the North Indian context the term domestic violence has specific connotations as violence takes place within an explicit patriarchal familial, social and cultural context. Domestic violence in such situation is also multifaceted with its many dimensions. The specificity of this violence entails much more than a tyrant husband and a subjugated docile wife. A woman in the case of family violence in patriarchal society has to live within abusive situation over prolonged period and is expected to tolerate pain and suffering in order to `save the institution of marriage'. For a woman facing such violence entails living and sleeping with one's enemy day in and day out. This paper reflects that such situation of violence goes beyond common explanations and examines it from the perspective of the survivor of abuse.
