RECOVER FROM COERCIVE CONTROL

Break Free. Reclaim Your Power.
Coercive control is a pattern of manipulative behaviours used by cults and high demand groups to dominate, isolate, and suppress. Its impact can be deeply traumatic, leaving emotional and psychological wounds that linger long after the experience ends. But healing is possible—and it begins with reclaiming your voice.
​
Recover From Coercive Control exists to support survivors, raise public awareness, and spark real change in Australia. Whether you're in the early stages of leaving, seeking clarity, or years into your recovery, you're not alone. This is a space for empowerment, education, and connection.
