"America's Safe Dating Coach" Dari Dyrness-Olsen, MA, LPC
Did you know...that 1 in 3 teens will experience dating abuse and those rates are even higher among college students and that 20-25% of college women in the United States will experience attempted or completed rape during college. (www.cdc.gov) Dari is "America's leading authority on Date Rape, Dating Abuse, and Safe Dating for girls & young women" and her mission is to educate, empower, and inspire girls and young women to date safely. Please don't become a victim of dating violence. Everyone always thinks "not my daughter" or "it won't happen to me". Sadly it does and it will if you don't learn how to protect yourself. There too many shocked parents and devastated girls who have been victims of dating abuse (physical abuse, verbal abuse, and emotional abuse) and date rape. Can you even put a price on you or your daughter's safety, well-being, and happiness? Dating abuse starts off gradually after you have "fallen in love" and is usually undetected by close friends and family. It may start off slowly with jealousy, controlling who you or your daughter is talking to or what she is wearing, eventually she is spending most of her time just with him, and if they aren't together they are constantly texting or talking. If you or someone you know has been the victim of dating abuse or date rape, please call (973)769-2991 or e-mail dari@safedatingcoach.com to get the best help available!
