Week 5 Conflict Resolution/Healthy Boundaries
33 unread replies.33 replies.
Welcome to Conflict Resolution and Boundaries education for Week 5!! Many of your clients and, quite honestly, many of us struggle with healthy boundaries in one way or another. Sometimes this looks like the inability for us to ask for help when we are drowning at work. Something I struggled with was the ability to set boundaries with myself in terms of the long hours I was working. Sometimes boundaries come into play when we talk about conflict, whether between ourselves and clients, co-workers, etc. It could be a conflict between clients. At some point, you are going to need to know and feel comfortable setting boundaries in one way or another.
