As we journey through life we are presented, each of us, with complex questions, difficult problems, and needs that often require professional support and gentle guidance to resolve life's many mysteries, twists, and turns. It is through our exploration of our selves and the world that we live in that we continue to evolve and grow and make a peaceful and happy life possible. Not just for our own self but for those we love and the generations to come.

Abuse

For many years I have been using the Power & Control Wheel to help people understand more about abuse. It isn't just about hitting but abusers try to control and hurt in many ways. At the center of abuse is the desire to have power and control over another person. The spokes of the wheel show the other areas of life that are commonly attacked.
Here is the link for a great website with a lot of information and a photo of the Power & Control Wheel.
