There is a need to improve psychological interventions in women experiencing intimate partner violence (IPV) and reduce its long-term sequelae. The objective of this qualitative study was to explore the needs of female IPV survivors, the support they receive, and their strategies for coping with this experience over the long term. During 2017, 53 female IPV survivors participated in the study, of whom 38 (71.7%) were recruited from women’s associations against gender violence from three Andalusia provinces (Southern Spain). In a semi-structured interview, the women responded to four open-ended questions about the effects of IPV on their life and how they coped with this situation. Four main themes were identified: (1) changes after the experience, (2) support during recovery, (3) perceived needs and obstacles, and (4) current situation. The survivors considered formal and informal social support to be critical to their recovery and emotional well-being. They also highlighted the need for continuity in support programs and for specialist interventions to address long-term psychological sequelae. These findings reinforce the need for psychological programs more tailored to the needs of these women.

有必要改进对遭受亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 的女性的心理干预，并减少其长期后遗症。这项定性研究的目的是探索女性 IPV 幸存者的需求、她们获得的支持以及她们长期应对这种经历的策略。2017 年，53 名女性 IPV 幸存者参与了这项研究，其中 38 名（71.7%）来自安达卢西亚三个省（西班牙南部）的反对性别暴力的妇女协会。在一次半结构化的采访中，这些女性回答了四个开放式问题，这些问题涉及 IPV 对她们生活的影响以及她们如何应对这种情况。确定了四个主要主题：（1）经历后的变化，（2）恢复期间的支持，（3）感知的需求和障碍，以及（4）当前情况。幸存者认为正式和非正式的社会支持对他们的康复和情绪健康至关重要。他们还强调了支持计划的连续性和专家干预以解决长期心理后遗症的必要性。这些发现加强了对更适合这些女性需求的心理计划的需求。
