dc.description.abstract |
This article reflects on the criticism regarding the pastoral counsellor’s dealings with spousal
rape victims. It argues that counsellors should be sensitive not to be biased, either personally
or theologically, and should have an understanding of the biopsychosocial (biological,
psychological and social) impact of spousal rape, such as rape-related post-traumatic stress
and other related illnesses such as depression, victimisation and stigmatisation. The pastoral
counsellors should be aware of the legal and medical ramifications of spousal rape and have
knowledge of the correct referral resources and procedures (trusted professionals, shelters
and support structures). They should be self-aware and understand the effect that gender or
previous traumatic personal experiences may have on their reactions. The article consists of the
following sections: the phenomenon ‘rape’; acquaintance rape; spousal rape; post-traumatic
stress; post-traumatic stress disorder; rape trauma syndrome; cognitive behavioural therapy;
spirituality; doctrinal matters; social system of patriarchy; a pastoral counselling model;
self-care. |
