Through in depth interviews and analysis the author reveals their feelings of being silenced as children, women, Black women and as victims/survivors. Being silenced or staying silent about experiences of violence and abuse are key influences in how and when women access help and support and Kanyeredzi illuminates missed opportunities in how and when this help and support can and should be given.  Based on women?s descriptions of how they felt supported, listened to, yet ?unheard?, chapters explore what professionals might face in the process of supporting Black women who access these services. The book contributes valuable understanding to the growing literature discussing challenges faced by minoritised women attempting to live full lives in the UK. It also includes images created as part of the project. This book is a useful resource for victims/survivors, students, researchers, clinical psychologists, counsellors, health professionals, social workers, educators and specialised violence support organisations.  . 606 $aSex (Psychology) 606 $aGender expression 606 $aSexual behavior 606 $aSexual psychology 606 $aPersonality 606 $aSocial psychology 606 $aCounseling 606 $aSocial justice 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20090 606 $aSexual Behavior$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20080 606 $aPersonality and Social Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20050 606 $aCounselling and Interpersonal Skills$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y12060 606 $aSocial Justice, Equality and Human Rights$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33070 615 0$aSex (Psychology). 615 0$aGender expression. 615 0$aSexual behavior. 615 0$aSexual psychology. 615 0$aPersonality. 615 0$aSocial psychology. 615 0$aCounseling. 615 0$aSocial justice. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 14$aGender Studies. 615 24$aSexual Behavior. 615 24$aPersonality and Social Psychology. 615 24$aCounselling and Interpersonal Skills. 615 24$aSocial Justice, Equality and Human Rights. 676 $a155.33 700 $aKanyeredzi$b Ava$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0766130 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298061103321 996 $aRace, Culture, and Gender$91558327 997 $aUNINA
