Sci-Tea Talks IPV: Exploring types of abuse and their association with PTSD
Episode 6
Friday, 16 September, 2022
Welcome to the 6th episode of Sci-Tea! Join us (Ryan & Nanci) for a conversation with Dr. Beth McGee and Dr. Ryan Couillou on Friday, September 16th for a discussion on intimate partner violence (IPV) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). We first talked about a paper that our guest Andy Godfrey recently published titled “Examining the Associations Between Multi-Dimensional Facets of Emotional Abuse and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Among Trauma Exposed Women.” We cover the definitions of emotional abuse and different facets of emotional abuse that are closely tied to the development of PTSD. We also get the valuable perspective of our guest Dr. Debbie Easterling, who worked as a grant writer for an organization, My Sister's House that provides resources and safety with the goal of ending the cycle of domestic violence. Andy's research leads us to focus on the harmful effects of isolation in the context of intimate partner violence - a theme that Dr. Easterling also emphasizes. We wrap up by talking about how common and misunderstood both emotional and physical abuse are and how respected community members may be able to be allies if given training.✨ Dr. Debbie Easterling discusses her work as a Grant Writer for My Sister's House, an organization she worked with for over 6 years. This organization aims to end the cycle of domestic violence through its services. We learn more about these services and Dr. Easterling dispels familiar narratives about intimate partner violence and provides insights into themes of Andy's research based on her experiences. Dr. Easterling is now an End-of-Life Doula and was previously a faculty member at both Bryant University and Salisbury Unversity.✨ Donald (Andy) Godfrey is a Ph.D. Student at the University of Houston working with Dr. Julia Babcock to study emotions and family conflict. Andy's research includes a focus on emotion dysregulation and using psychophysiological tools to understand aggression.Materials Referenced in this Episode:✨ Andy's research paper: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10896-022-00429-y✨ My Sister's House website: https://www.mysistershouse.org/✨ Recognizing a domestic violence situation, how to get help, and how to help a friend: https://www.patreon.com/posts/conversation-lee-71990468?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_fan Connect with Ryan on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok for more content like this: https://www.ryanlinnbrown.com/links
