Domestic Abuse is a pattern of abuse that worsens over time. It is about obtaining power and maintaining control over another. It can include Emotional Abuse, Gaslighting, Coercive Control, Physical, Financial, Sexual, Digital and Stalking.

All these signs are serious. You do not need to experience all of them to indicate domestic abuse. Talk to us if you feel you are experiencing any form of domestic abuse.
