Are You Struggling to Find a Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Programme (DAPP)?
If you’ve been told you need a DAPP as part of family court proceedings, it can feel overwhelming, especially when you hit long waiting lists or services that can’t take you on.
A lot of people find themselves stuck in a gap:
They want to work on their behaviour
They want to show the court they’re engaging
But no one can start them for months…
That doesn’t help you.
It doesn’t help your children.
And it certainly doesn’t help your case move forward.
Here’s where I can help.
I offer a structured, court-recognised DAPP that you can start quickly, usually within 1-2 weeks.
Here’s what that means for you:
🟠 No long waiting list
You can begin your change work now.
🟠 Open to self-referrals during ongoing proceedings
You don’t need to wait until 12 months after your case is finished.
🟠 A proper behaviour-change programme
This isn’t a box-ticking exercise.
We look at emotions, communication, patterns, responsibility, and how change actually happens.
🟠 Private, confidential, and supportive
You get a safe space to understand what’s happening in your relationships and how to move forward differently.
🟠 Court-accepted reports when needed
Clear, professional documentation of your engagement and progress.
If you’re feeling stuck, you’re not alone.
Many people reach out when they feel everything has escalated and they don’t know where to turn. Taking this step can show your commitment to change, and help you build a safer, calmer way of communicating.
If you’d like more information, DM me, lets have a chat about what you need to do to get started.

If you've lost contact with your kids because of your behaviour, the law just made things harder.
May 2025: Courts removed the presumption that kids benefit from having both parents involved.
What does that mean for you?
It means the court won't assume your kids need you in their lives. YOU have to prove contact with you is safe.
Not by waiting.
Not by promising to change.
Not by hoping time will fix things.
By actually doing the work to change.
Here's the truth: if you've been abusive in past relationships, your kids deserve to know you've changed before they see you again. The court agrees.
So how do you show you've changed?
- DAPP (Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Programme)
- Understanding what your behaviour did to your (ex)-partner & kids
- Learning to manage your triggers
- Taking real responsibility, not just words
The court needs evidence. Reports. Progress. Proof you've done the work.
If you're serious about changing your behaviour, start now. Don't wait for the court to tell you. Don't wait until another year has gone by and your children have moved on without you.
Do the work. Get the evidence. Rebuild the relationship.
I have spaces available now.

Every Christmas, the same patterns repeat.
The same arguments.
The same triggers.
The same apologies.
The same promises: "Next year will be different."
But without intervention, next year looks exactly like last year.
The Ghost of Christmas Past isn't a metaphor. It's a warning.
Without behaviour change work, December 2025 will look like December 2024. And December 2026 will look the same again.
If you:
- Promise change but never address the underlying patterns
- Blame stress, alcohol, or circumstances for your behaviour
- Repeat the same cycle every festive season
- Have a history of incidents around family gatherings
..change won't happen without structured support.
Domestic abuse perpetrator programme (DAPP) work and behaviour change coaching interrupt these repeating patterns. They address the roots, not just the seasonal symptoms.
If you're worried about how you'll handle Christmas this year, or if last Christmas ended badly and you don't want history to repeat, now is the time to get support.
Waiting until after another Christmas goes wrong is too late.
I have November/December availability for assessments and programme starts.

✨ Coaching session 2 today for one of my clients……and what a moment.
We’d just finished some timeline work and anchored in a really resourceful state when my client paused and said:
“It’s a really big thing for me to come and talk to you, but I really enjoy seeing you. I like how you say things.”
When I asked how he felt after the session, he grinned and said,
“I’m buzzing.”
(Well, he is from Manchester 😄)
Moments like that remind me why I love what I do.
Coaching isn’t just about talking, it’s about creating shifts in how we think, feel, and respond. Watching someone move from uncertainty to empowerment… it’s magic.
If you’ve been thinking about making a change but not sure where to start, sometimes all it takes is one conversation to begin seeing things differently.
⭐ Supporting you on the path to change.

"How are we affording Christmas this year?"
For some families, this question triggers more than stress, it triggers conflict.
Financial pressure at Christmas doesn't just create arguments about money. It creates:
- Shame ("I can't provide what my kids deserve")
- Blame ("You always overspend")
- Control ("I decide what we buy")
- Resentment ("Everyone else can afford it")
When financial stress meets unresolved anger patterns, Christmas becomes a battleground.
The person who:
- Controls all spending decisions
- Explodes when challenged about money
- Uses finances to punish or shame their partner
- Makes unilateral decisions about family spending
..isn't just "stressed about money." They're using financial pressure as a tool of control.
If you recognise that you use money as a tool to control your intimate partner, and you want to change. I have just the programme for you.
I currently have November/December availability for DAPP assessments and programme starts.

The flame is back. 🔥
After almost a year away, I'm excited to announce that Control the Flame is returning for Season 2!
This season, we're doing things differently. No guests. No distractions. Just you, me, and honest conversations about anger, the kind you might hear on late night radio when it's just the two of you and the truth.
We'll be diving deep into:
✨ Understanding where anger really comes from
✨ Practical strategies that actually work
✨ The things nobody talks about (but should)
✨ Real tools for real life
Think of it as your companion for those late nights, long drives, or quiet moments when you're ready to do the work. More intimate. More raw. More real.
Season 2 is available now. Let's control the flame together.

"Why do I only lose my temper at family gatherings?"
Because you haven't learned your triggers and how to control them.
Christmas amplifies everything:
- Old resentments resurface
- Expectations are high
- Everyone's stressed
- Alcohol flows
- You're stuck in close quarters for hours
That's not an excuse. It's an explanation.
Your mum's comment about your parenting.
Your brother's jokes at your expense.
Your partner's family making digs.
None of that MAKES you angry. It triggers something already there.
Real behaviour change means learning to manage your responses when people press those buttons.
Because here's the truth: If you can't control your anger at Christmas dinner, your kids are watching. Your partner is bracing for it.
Domestic Abuse Perpetrator Programmes (DAPP) work helps you understand your triggers and choose different responses.
Before Christmas becomes another incident .
