Helping Clients Manage Unhealthy Family Relationships: A Drama-Free Approach

$129.99 Standard

When is a client’s family member too toxic to keep? When is it worth it to heal a longstanding family rift? For many of our clients, their families are a source of ongoing pain, hurt, and conflict. It’s not always easy to maintain healthy, positive connections with family members who have different ideas about loyalty, love, connection, what’s appropriate to share, and how much influence they believe they should have over a family member’s personal choices. For therapists, it can be hard to know what to do when clients struggle with intense ambivalence about family members. In this session, you’ll learn:

  • How to help clients resolve ambivalence about difficult and unhealthy family relationships and know when to stay and when to go
  • How to know when an apparently abusive relationship can be salvaged through healthy communication and boundary setting
  • Clear ways for identifying dysfunctional family patterns and choosing the best path to break painful cycles and move forward

Here's What You'll Learn

  • The mental and physical implications of troubled relationships
  • How to sit with clients who have difficult, unhealthy, or abusive family relationships
  • Providing a historical context for relationship issues
  • How to allow clients to make their own choices based on what they feel comfortable doing
  • Helping clients learn research-based relationship skills and offer them space to discuss what the tools look like in practice (in between sessions)

Everything You're Getting

  • More than 1 hour of video content
  • Up to 1.75 CE credits
  • Certificate of completion
  • Handouts and resources
