Terapia cognitivo-conductual para el daño psicológico en mujeres maltratadas domésticamente: revisión sistemática y meta análisis
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction. Domestic violence violates the physical and mental health of the victim and her family environment; usually women are the most affected, for cultural and social reasons violence has been normalized within the family context. The damage, especially the psychological damage, is one of the consequences that lasts over time unless the victim receives comprehensive care focused on her main needs. Objective. The objective was to assess the current empirical evidence of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for the treatment of psychological harm in women who have been domestically abused by their partners. Methodology. The review was conducted in the Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science databases, using the guidelines of the Prisma and Consort statements to obtain the final sample of articles selected based on the proposed inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results. Most cognitive-behavioral interventions have focused on addressing the symptomatology of PTSD, depression, or anxiety, achieving favorable results for this type of population. Conclusion. In conclusion, CBT is effective for the treatment of psychological harm in women who have been domestically abused by their partners. However, the lack of specificity of the interventions constitutes an important limitation at the time of replication in clinical practice.
