1. Invisible Bruises

A powerful read for survivors, those in the medical and mental health fields, and people in the legal system, this book draws on Gillis’s clinical experiences treating survivors as a psychotherapist and social worker to offer a unique insight into the gaps in the legal system that actually perpetuate the cycle. Gillis hopes to raise awareness about how the legal system- which is assumed to help- can actually end up doing more damage to everyone involved.

Invisible Bruises is an in depth look at our legal system, how it can help – and also how it can hurt – a domestic abuse survivor’s chances of freeing themselves from their relationship and securing their safety. With a detailed account of the court system and the seemingly endless struggles survivors face throughout this slow and lengthy process, this eye-opening book gives insight into the ways that we can improve the court and legal system.

2. It’s Not “High-Conflict,” it’s Post Separation Abuse.

The family court system is meant to protect domestic violence victims, yet too often, it becomes an endless labyrinth that traps them inside. Abusers weaponize our judicial system to instill their revenge, from long, drawn-out divorces and custody battles to forcing their victims to spend thousands of dollars and endless time in court.

In her new book, Kaytee Gillis tells the story of those victims, just trying to defend themselves against the revenge of post-separation abuse while navigating that legal labyrinth. When our judicial system fails to protect victims from this abuse, they give abusers the freedom to continue it. Legally.
