Helping Your Clients Set Limits
Copyright :
Setting healthy boundaries is crucial for building stronger relationships, but because every individual is unique, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to addressing all boundary challenges. Most situations require tailored strategies, because the boundaries you set reflect your own needs, hopes, and relationship priorities. In this workshop, you'll not only learn why creating healthy boundaries is so critical in healthy, long-term connections, but how to identify the signs and symptoms of the boundary-related issues our clients show up with in sessions. You'll explore a variety of boundary-setting techniques for common albeit challenging situations as well as how to help clients avoid overstepping other people’s boundaries. You’ll discover how to:
- Help clients recognize where they struggle with boundaries and why
- Help clients identify the costs of relationships with weak or poor boundaries
- Model boundary-setting techniques you can teach clients
- Apply a tool for minimizing countertransference so you can better support clients in making their own boundary-related choices based on what they feel comfortable doing
