What is Coercive Control? Coercive control is the pattern of behavior or actions used by a perpetrator to frighten, threaten, oppress, and limit their victim. A perpetrator will work to isolate and intimidate their partner to the point where their partner’s isolation from others and dependence on them gives them an immense feeling of power and control.
Some signs of Coercive control include:
Stalking / monitoring your activities
Name-calling and putting you down
Gaslighting
Legal Abuse and limiting your access to money
Making jealous accusations
Isolating you from your support system
Denying access to children
Physical Violence
