Understanding Intimate Partner Violence & Mental Health
Intimate partner violence can affect anyone, and its impact often shows up as stress, fear, depression, anxiety, sleep issues, or feeling numb, among others. Mhaven connects research and real-world supports to help you recognize patterns of harm, understand what you’re feeling, and explore next steps that fit your situation, on your terms.
VOICES & CREATIVE WORKS
You’re Not Alone
Get inspired to achieve the peaceful life you deserve by exploring our collection of success stories from folks who have discovered life after violence.
READ WITH CARE. Many stories include descriptions of assault and violence and may be triggering to some readers.

"My involvement in Mhaven is to change the narrative while helping to educate. Hope you will join me.”
"Sharing my experience now helps me connect with others, showing that healing and understanding are possible even after trauma."
"Very often when we hear the word ‘abuse’, we think of physical abuse. I know I thought this way until my experience.”

"My experience has shaped me into the ambitious, driven and passionate person that I am today.”
