1000 Breaths

There are many engaged in the cause of ending violence and abuse in our world, but few who have had the impact that Bob Geffner has had.  We had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Geffner, president and founder of the Institute of Violence, Abuse and Trauma (IVAT), a day following IVAT's international conference, which brought in over 1500 people from 49 states and over 15 countries. IVAT’s 17^thannual International Conference took place September 9 - 12 in San Diego, attracting professionals, counselors, researchers, policy makers, survivors, and advocates in order to find solutions and share knowledge, experience and hope. Among many accolades, Geffner is a Licensed Psychologist and Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in California and Texas. He has also served on several national and state committees dealing with various aspects of family psychology, family violence, child abuse, and family law. He has presented over 450 keynote addresses, workshops and seminars at international, national, regional, and state conferences and meetings. In short, Geffner stands for the freedom for many afflicted human who is presently experiencing the trauma of abuse or violence.
