I've always thought that treating abusers holistically - looking at everything that might be wrong, from a history of being abused by/having bad or confrontational relationships with family to their use and abuse of gender roles to their drug and alcohol use to how they handle anger and stress to how many existing issues such as trauma, PTSD and so on they may have might be more helpful, but at that point we throw treatment more solidly into (sometimes very complex) mental health territory, which remains both chronically stigmatized and underfunded.
