Have you left a relationship with a coercive controller?

• Is your child going between your home and the home of the coercive controller? What can you do about it, and how can you manage it both personally and in the court?
• Is your child exhibiting fear? Look for the hidden signs manifested in sadness, anger, high-achieving, or dissociating.

These are some of the areas we talk about today in the Modern Divorce Podcast featuring Billie Tarascio and Dr. Christine Cocchiola, LCSW, DWS, a coercive control educator and social justice advocate. Dr. Cocchiola offers powerful advice and information about what to look for when it comes to domestic abuse and the harms inflicted onto both adult and child victims.

Herself a survivor, she’s had a successful career as a professor teaching social work for the last 20 years, she has been a social justice advocate since the age of 19, volunteering for a local domestic violence/sexual assault agency. Her expertise is in the areas of coercive control and the traumatic experiences of both adult and child victims, researching and developing training on these topics both nationally and internationally and supporting clients with her clinical expertise.
