Domestic violence is increasing at an alarming rate in society.
It is time to break the post domestic violence cycle. The news services often carry stories about domestic violence. But we only get to see the tail end of it. What lies behind closed doors is the real story. The abuse the public does not get to see.
The Real Damage
The real damage is done here. Domestic violence cripples the sense of self of the victim. The abuser controls them to the extent that they are not allowed to make decisions.
Without making decisions, we start to lose the concept of who we are and what we want. The victim becomes compliant, and their wants and needs are invisible. They are conditioned to be a puppet and not an individual.

Services such as DV Connect, and Men’s Line exist to deal with people who are currently in domestic violence situations. These services are structured to provide necessary safety precautions. But what happens when you have finished using these services and are out of the relationship? What then?
Where is the support to Break The Post Domestic Violence Cycle?
You are on your own, trying to make a life for yourself and perhaps your children, who are also traumatised. But all the conditioning from the domestic violence situation tells you that you don’t make decisions.
Every goal and dream has been beaten out of you. What do you do now? How do you reinvent yourself?
Being alone and responsible for everything feels unfamiliar and scary. All too often, victims return to what is familiar – another abusive relationship. They don’t know how to be themselves. They don’t know how to make the necessary decisions and don’t have the self-confidence needed. So going back into another relationship seems to be the best idea.
There needs to be support for those living in this post domestic violence phase so you can thrive and not just survive.
Our highly skilled, dedicated post domestic violence support counsellor can show you the steps to creating an independent life after being subjected to someone else’s demands for so long. Learn the skills that have been beaten or belittled out of you and start living a life where you are the one in control.
