Thank you. This was validating. I experienced coercive abuse as a child, young adult, and in my 29-year marriage. Language is liberating. I have a Psychology degree, a BSc, and a practicing RN. I agree, we need to look to other disciplines to more fully understand the human condition. I had four counselors who did not understand coercive abuse. It was invalidating. What has made the difference for me is this type of online information about coercive abuse and Dr. Stark's research. Meditation with Dr. Tara Brach. Self-compassion exercises of Dr. Kristin Neff. I am hopeful that as this information is shared, more therapists will become skilled at identifying and supporting survivors of coercive abuse. Thank you.
