Насилието над жените като кризисно преживяване: психологическа помощ
Violence against women as a crisis experience: psychological help

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses two of the most common forms of violence against women: sexual and domestic, leading to serious damage not only to physical but also to mental health. Violence against women is conceptualized in the context of the concepts of "crisis" and "psychological trauma", meaningfully related to the idea of transgressing socially accepted and close to the individual views of the world and human rights, putting them in a state of extreme confusion and insecurity. The risk factors and psychological consequences of sexual and domestic violence are considered. Leading approaches to therapy and counseling of victims of violence are presented. Specific guidelines and practical advice on how to conduct psychological support activities aimed at dealing with cases of violence against women are offered. The uncovering the psychological significance and consequences of various forms of violence against women in their dynamics has important implications for the prevention, intervention and support of victims.
