Therapists have always worked with clients to teach healthy relationship skills and ways to use healthy boundaries. Having these skills can greatly improve a client’s life and the relationships they have with others. Since the pandemic, these social skills have decreased amongst children, adults, and older adults alike. Multiple studies have examined the impact on social skills across multiple populations. This training will examine the current deficits in social skills including interpersonal relationship skills. Trainees will learn interventions for assisting clients in gaining awareness of social skills deficits. They will also learn at least 2 interventions for helping clients use skills for heathier relationships and using healthy boundaries.
Learning Objectives:
- Have awareness of the ways boundaries and relationship skills have been impacted by pandemic isolation.
- Assess clients effectively for poor boundaries and unhealthy relationship skills.
- Have at least 2 techniques to use to teach clients healthy boundaries and relationship skills.
