Are you reading this page because you are worried about your behaviour towards your partner? If so, you can take steps to consider what you need to do to change.
Most domestic violence is by men and towards women. Although, women can also be abusive and abuse can take place in same sex relationships. We encourage you to keep up your efforts to change.
It can be tough facing up to difficult problems. The change from being abusive can be a long and hard process. We can help you make the changes you need so that you are safe around your partner and children. Here we aim to help you to know what the problem is and make some changes.
