Pam Wright, Clinical Director, South Bay Community Services and Psychotherapist joins Dr. Craig Beach - CEO, Open Mind Health, to cover signs and indicators, common risk factors, what a healthy relationship looks like, and much more on the topic of domestic abuse.
Domestic abuse is often discussed as something people should simply leave behind, but I think that misses how deeply fear, control, shame, and trauma can reshape a person’s choices. Healing usually needs more than willpower; it needs language, safety, counselling, and support that feels steady. That is why addiction literature can be surprisingly helpful too, especially books about recovery, codependency, trauma, relapse, and rebuilding self-worth. Reading someone else’s honest story can make a lonely experience feel less impossible to name. For me, the strongest message is that recovery starts when silence finally loses some of its power.
