Domestic abuse isn’t always visible. It’s not just bruises and black eyes, sometimes, it’s silence, fear, and loss of self.
When we think of domestic abuse, many imagine physical violence. But for so many, the scars are emotional, mental, or financial, and they’re often hidden.
If you’ve noticed a loved one becoming unusually quiet, withdrawn, anxious, or losing confidence… please check in with them. Sometimes a gentle “Are you okay?” can open a door they’ve been too scared to knock on.
And if you’re reading this and recognising these signs in yourself, please know this: you’re not alone and it’s not your fault.
Abuse comes in many forms, control, manipulation, isolation, constant criticism, and you deserve to feel safe, respected, and heard.
I offer a confidential, compassionate space to talk things through. No judgment, no pressure, just a safe place to start finding your way forward.
If any of this resonates, reach out. Book a free, no-obligation chat or send me a message; sometimes the first step is simply saying, “I need to talk.” You never have to face it alone. 💜
