But he's never hit me.
This book is for you if you have ever said, or heard, these words from a loved one. Unprovoked control is the kind of abuse that leaves no bruises. It operates by isolation, gaslighting, financial control, electronic monitoring and the gradual and scheming process of destroying what makes you, you. From the outside, it leaves no trace. From the inside is difficult to call it by name. Researchers recognize it as one of the most reliable predictors of lethal intimate partner violence. Coercive Control and You empowers you with the vocabulary, the framework, and the tools to recognize the pattern-if you're in it, if you're loved by someone in it, or if you're a professional trying to help.

What's inside:

  • A signs checklist based on scenarios that you can use today.
  • Why it is not so easy to leave - and what is easier.
  • How gaslighting and trauma bonding become a form of bondage.
  • Digital surveillance, technology misuses and how to deal with them.
  • Professional guidance for therapists and social workers on how to help.
  • Create stories from the real world that depict what this is really like
  • A comprehensive resource guide with hotlines and support organizations.
You don't need a single dramatic incident to justify getting help. The pattern is enough.
