ROMERO, Inmaculada. Intervening in Gender Violence: Considerations About the Treatment. Psychosocial Intervention [online]. 2010, vol.19, n.2, pp.191-199. ISSN 2173-4712.

When considering a psychological intervention with a woman who has been a victim of gender violence, one must analyze which approach to take. Here, we weigh up several factors that ground the intervention and make it meaningful, regardless of the theoretical framework of whoever is carrying out the intervention. We also analyze which elements of a gender violence victim’s background should be considered. So, instead of performing an undifferentiated intervention, we take each woman’s individuality into account and thus contribute more effectively to her recovery.

Keywords : violence; gender; treatment; recovery.
