Coercive control is at the core of all domestic abuse.
And when it occurs in the context of narcissism, this insidious behavior can become incredibly dangerous.
As a therapist, there are few issues that will challenge you in the way coercive control can --- because it requires you to overcome gaslighting, emotional manipulation, financial control, and sexual coercion that only gets worse when your client tries to escape it.
To effectively help your client, you need specialized knowledge and the right skills to navigate the treacherous path to safety – or you’re likely to do more harm than good.
Christine Cocchiola, DSW, LCSW, has dedicated her career to discovering the safest and most effective ways to help clients experiencing domestic and narcissistic abuse. Her trainings have equipped clinicians around the world to help their clients break free from coercive control.
And now, she is offering this truly unique training to share with you her step-by-step framework for recognizing and overcoming abusive coercive control tactics ...
... that will fully equip you with the skills and confidence you need to guide your clients to safety and help them transform from victim to survivor.
