Brief summary

At Uppsala University Hospital, there is an outpatient clinic for women subjected to intimate partner violence. In order to explore how patients experience the biopsychosocial resilience-based intervention in use at the clinic and how well the intervention fits the needs of the patients, 30 patients from different stages of their contact at the clinic and with diverse life situations and background are enrolled. The researchers will carry out individual in-person interviews, each lasting approximately 60 minutes, based on a semi-structured set of questions. The questions concern the participant´s life situation, resilience and self-perceived needs, how well the intervention has met those needs and how it was perceived by the participant. The interviews are audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim for thematic analysis.
