Coercive control is one of the most dangerous but least understood forms of abuse. Many victims don’t even realize they’re being controlled—until it’s too late.
In this episode of The Modern Arizona Podcast, Dr. Lisa Fontes, a leading expert in coercive control and domestic violence, breaks down the hidden tactics of abuse and how survivors can recognize and escape these manipulative relationships.
Dr. Fontes shares:
✅ The key warning signs of coercive control (beyond physical violence)
✅ How family courts and the legal system often fail victims
✅ Why abusers use legal, financial, and parental control to maintain dominance
✅ Practical steps for victims to protect themselves and their children
If you or someone you know feels trapped in a relationship where power and fear dictate daily life, this conversation is a must-listen.
Tune in now to learn how to spot, understand, and fight back against coercive control.
