❤️ 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 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.

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

Learning objectives include:
