<p><strong>Tangled Web of Words: A Breakthrough Guide to Conversational and Coercive Control in Relationships</strong> by Dr Torna Pitman is an essential resource for understanding why and how conversations matter for healthy relationships. This includes the conversations&nbsp;we don't have, should have, or can't have with our partner and those mishandled due to unfair conversational tactics.

Conversational Control at higher levels gradually grooms the unsuspecting into compliance and is called <strong>Coercive Control.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>This book offers practical strategies and frameworks for practitioners, therapists, counsellors, and individuals to recognise and navigate these dynamics. <em>Tangled Web of Words</em> is enlightening and empowering, providing an indispensable compass for practitioners and individuals.
