Trauma Bonding & Why Survivors Stay
Thank you for joining me in my first podcast! This podcast covers trauma wounds, traumatic bonding, traumatic memories, and why victims/survivors stay in abusive relationships (and as Lundy Bancroft suggests, we should really be asking why the abusive person abuses). It is designed for mental health practitioners, victims/survivors of trauma, and anyone who has interest in this topic. I want to provide a trigger warning that there are some references to violence in this podcast. I also recognize some prefer the term victim or survivor and I use these interchangeably. (I (the host of this podcast) am Jessica Curd, PhD Candidate, LCSW. I have experience working in the domestic violence, mental health, and medical social work fields as well as private practice. I am happy to provide sources for any information provided (upon request). Thank you or taking the time to listen to the podcast!
