Query: I’m writing an article about a common tactic abusers use to control intimate partners: threatening suicide. I am looking for a psychologist/DV expert to interview on why abusers do this, why it is so effective, how a survivor can tell if the threat is serious, what they should do if their partner threatens suicide if they leave, etc.
