Most important do not judge your friend by anything she may disclose to you. Help your friend to recognize the abuse and provide your friend with resouces where she can get assistance by a local Domestic Violence Agency or from the National Domestic Violence Hotline. Help them to focus on their safety and develop a safety plan.
