Clients walk into your office every day with different complaints and yet there is a commonality that is easily missed – the context in which their struggles often develop is conflict – poorly-handled, unresolved conflict.
Conflict is unavoidable, whether it’s in a marriage, family, work, or friendship context though it’s not always obvious that poor conflict management skills are at the heart of client’s problems. Their lack of conflict management skills can lead to struggles with depression, anxiety, and a host of other issues that bring them to your office. These problems become even more significant if the client has a conflict with an emotional manipulator who has neither the ability nor desire to resolve problems.
Many mental health clinicians are not skilled at conflict resolution and it is an area often neglected in many training programs. Alternative Dispute Resolution expert, Dr. Alan Godwin, combines decades of clinical practice and the latest behavioural research to offer you comprehensive solutions and an easy-to-understand conflict resolution system you will be ready to use the next day to engage and empower your clients.
Don’t miss out on this unique chance to expand your clinical skill set, your clients are counting on you.
