Healthy Boundaries and Effective Communication – The Family Centre

Do you find it difficult to speak up for yourself and share your opinion or feelings, especially when they aren’t the same as someone else’s? A lack of assertiveness or confidence can result in challenges between you and your family, partner, or coworkers. Effective communication and conflict management skills are critical for your overall health and happiness. You have a right to be heard, make your own choices, and even say “no.”

You will build skills to enhance your communication by understanding:

• Different communication styles

• What assertive communication is, why assertive communication is important, and how to communicate assertively

• How to effectively resolve conflicts

• “I” statement

• Boundaries and how to say no

By the end of the course, you will feel more comfortable:

• Communicating, resolving conflict, setting boundaries, and asserting yourself

• Sharing your most important concerns

• Solving day-to-day problems and challenges
