The negative effects of FGM/C orGBV, are not just physical. Survivors can be left with long-term psychological impacts as a result of their traumatic experiences. In this episode, our guest, a mental health therapist speaks on the side effects that emerge from the trauma of GBV and FGM/C and how they can vary for each individual. We learn that support and services cannot be one shoe fits all and there needs to be a collaboration with communities, survivors and service providers. We also learn about strategies that can be used by providers for survivors during a trigger to help them strive.
