It is episode 100 and we are flipping the script and doing something completely different.  

My good friend, Lundy Bancroft is interviewing ME, so that you can get a behind the scenes look at how I got started doing this work and why I am so passionate about helping you.

We touch on the lack of training mental health professionals get specific to working with domestic violence and coercive control, some of the shifts in the field that I have seen and the shifts that need to happen, how I make decisions that are in the best interest of the survivors I serve and more.

This was a fun episode and a way for you to get to know the woman behind the microphone.  I hope you enjoy it!

Lundy’s Bio: With over thirty years' experience specializing in interventions for abusive men and their families, Lundy Bancroft has authored seven books, including the world’s best-seller on domestic violence, Why Does He Do That? and the prizewinning professional book The Batterer as Parent. Lundy is the former Training Director of Emerge, the U.S.’s first counseling program for men who batter, and was involved in over 2000 cases as counselor and clinical supervisor. He has served extensively as a custody evaluator, child abuse investigator, and expert witness. His new book and first novel is In Custody: A Carrie Green Mystery, in which domestic violence meets the family law system.
