In this head noise episode, I respond to a listeners question around coercive control and I go further in depth, covering the complex and often subtle signs of coercive control in relationships, and offers guidance on how to support loved ones who may be experiencing it. Coercive control is a form of psychological abuse that can be just as damaging as physical violence, and it's essential to recognise the signs and take action.

I share advice on how to approach conversations with loved ones who may be experiencing coercive control, including how to bring up the topic gently and avoid being judgmental or accusatory. This is focused on providing them with opportunities to regain their independence and autonomy.

If you or someone you know is experiencing coercive control, this episode is a must-listen.  By listening to this episode, you'll gain a deeper understanding of coercive control and learn how to support those affected by it.
