Common methods of coercive control in IPV

This presentation will explore coercive control as a tactic of intimate partner violence, including coercive substance use and coercive sexual exploitation. We will review what is currently known about the rates of substance abuse experienced by survivors and offenders of IPV and engage participants in a discussion about the misunderstanding regarding causality for violence and what obstacles survivors may encounter when seeking treatment. We will talk about what we mean by "being trauma-informed," what this means when working with offenders who use coercive tactics, some characteristics that may be seen in offender evaluations and how to address them in treatment planning and intervention. We welcome open dialogue about interventions participants have used or seen that they feel are effective and explore problematic situations participants may have encountered.

  • Participants will learn to identify coercive control tactics often seen in intimate partner violence.
  • Participants will learn how to address these with survivors in trauma-informed ways.
  • Participants will learn how to address these tactics with offenders in non-confrontational ways that engender accurate accountability.
