Living Through Violence - October National Domestic Violence Month Season 9 - Episode 10 On this podcast, my guest is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I asked her to join me for a couple of reasons. Not only is October National Domestic Violence Month, but I’ve also been sharing on my blog a part of my life when I was in an abusive relationship. I felt it was important to talk with a professional to give us the best advice on this subject.  WHAT YOU WILL HEAR ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE: Different types of abuse in Relationships Potential Signs of Domestic Violence When or Should you intervene if you think a friend or family member is being abused?
