Understanding Coercive Control
A trauma-informed framework for recognising the hidden dynamics of coercive control in the perinatal period and beyond.
Bringing visibility to the invisible
Coercive control often remains hidden, minimised, misunderstood, or missed entirely.

Built from research, clinical practice, and lived experiences, the CCET supports professionals to recognise patterns that traditional models often fail to capture.
