Free Training Events - Understanding & Preventing Coercive Control
❤️ Valentine’s Day Special Training — Understanding & Preventing Coercive Control Valentine’s Day often highlights love and connection. We’re choosing to also look honestly at how control, coercion, and harm can hide inside relationships. Love should never require fear, compliance, or self-erasure ❤️ On Saturday 14th February, we are honoured to host the brilliant @Serena DAfree from DAfree Awareness Movement for two tailored sessions — one for trauma survivors and one for therapists/counsellor and coaches. Duration 1 hour, and will be recorded. Live attendance is open to all members. Recordings will live permanently in the classroom for Premium & VIP. 💜 Trauma Survivor / Peer Support Community Join for free here: Trauma Healing Community VTT 🕑 2pm UK time (check your calendar for local time) Understanding & Preventing Coercive Control We will explore: • what coercive control is and why it can be invisible • how patterns of control create trauma over time• how it appears beyond romantic relationships • the impact on the nervous system, identity & safety• red flags and gentle awareness By the end, you’ll: • recognise coercive control as a pattern, not a single event • understand how harm can exist without physical violence • gain language for experiences that are often hard to name• leave with a more compassionate lens for yourself and others 🌿 Therapist Community (for therapists, counsellors and coaches) Join for free here: Therapist Community TPS 🕓 4pm UK time (check your calendar for local time) Coercive Control Explained for Therapists: Why it Matters We will explore: • foundations of domestic abuse & coercive control • historical, legal & human rights perspectives • impacts on survivors • how coercive control presents in therapeutic work • trauma-informed, safe responses
