Translating awareness to action is a central theme of Every 90 Seconds as well as a passion. This year, I took that theme (and passion) to the (virtual) pages of Psychology Today. Under the banner, “From Awareness to Action: Addressing Intimate Violence and Trauma Together,” here are the topics I’ve covered so far:
- NEW: What Happens When A Trauma is also a Betrayal: Three things to know about the harm of betrayal
- Why Intimate Partner Abuse Is a Workplace Issue: 3 things businesses should know to take action to stop violence against women
- Why People Can Feel Disconnected From Themselves and Others After Trauma: Recognizing alienation after trauma
- How Common Is Sexual Violence in the United States? 3 take-aways from a new report can guide action
- Reproductive Coercion, Post-Roe: Reproductive health and violence against women are linked
- How to Translate Thoughts and Prayers Into Action: Taking action to stop gun violence can be done in four iterative steps
- 3 Ways to Respond to a Sexual Assault Disclosure: When someone discloses an assault, be prepared to respond in helpful ways
- 3 Ways to Take Action to End Sexual Assault: Together, we can turn awareness of sexual assault into action
