Dr. Cocchiola highlights how coercive control in the home can significantly impact a child's developing brain and emotional wellbeing. Drawing from her experiences in child welfare and as a survivor herself, she emphasizes the importance of providing a safe space for children by preventing them from being forced into interactions with their abusers.

Do you see it?

Watch for it and then the patterns will become evident.

When the patterns are visible, then we can give them the support they need.

The Coercive Controller exerts power over everyone - including our children. His primary focus is to ensure our children feel shame and he kindles that overtly and covertly with them. We need to do whatever we can to extinguish this - shame-reducing responses are so important, yet so challenging when our children trigger our trauma.

What if you could look down on the relationship dynamics with the coercive controller [Narcissistic Abuser]?

What has the coercive controller been saying about you you since DAY ONE?

We need THE LIST so that we can counteract the abusers intentional diminishing of the protective parent and we need to begin to change THE STORY our children believe to be true.

The threats of revenge are all too real: The financial ruin that is often further inflicted through the legal process is overwhelming. It's all intentional. It's all planned.

In this episode Dr. Cocchiola begins to unpack the various ways that coercive controllers inflict their harm. It's ALL intentional. It's a course of conduct. A pattern that is often insidious yet cumulative. It's intimate terrorism. It limits the freedoms of an individual - as Dr. Evan Stark states: "Coercive Control is a liberty crime and we MUST be in the business of EMANCIPATION".
