520 _aThis article outlines five phases of growth women define following male partner abuse. The article is based on the grounded theory qualitative research undertaken by the first author for her Master's thesis and compares the findings to international studies which find comparable patterns. The authors provide an outline of the New Zealand social and cultural context. The five stages women in the study experienced are identified as: Phase 1: Falling for Love; Phase 2: Taking Control; Phase 3: Securing a Base; Phase 4: Making Sense of It; Phase 5: Being Myself. The authors identify the limitations of the study due to the constraints of Master's thesis research. The authors conclude that the study contributes to theoretical literature on recovery following partner abuse.
