Have you ever counseled a friend who is obviously in an abusive relationship but they don't seem to recognize it? To an outsider, it can be baffling why someone chooses to stay in an abusive relationship when all the evidence is there that they should leave. You really care about this person, and you see the toll the abuse has on them, yet they seem to live in denial and may even come to defend their abuser.

In this episode, I share 5 reasons why people may not recognize abuse in an intimate partner scenario.

Remember that victims often believe they are stuck or help may not be available, so remind them that there is help and give them hope will go a long way in shoring up their courage to leave.
