    Learning to Resolve Conflict & Gain Effective Problem-solving Skills

    The foundation of this webinar is to seek first to understand then to be understood as quoted by Stephen Covey. When our emotions are running high, we naturally get defensive and some of us avoid conflict, which is a false sense of safety. In this seminar, we get curious about how participants are addressing conflict in their lives and workplaces and how sharp their problem solving skills are.

    One of the goals of this seminar is to lean into effective communications, practicing mindfulness, self-awareness and embracing collaboration among the five aspects of conflict resolution. Our experienced therapist and facilitator demonstrates behaviour chain analysis for problem-solving while helping participants embrace solutions as they identify a target problem, the action to take to address it, apply coping strategies and evaluate the outcome.

    Grief Processing – Moving Through Grief Using Narrative Therapy

    We all experience grief in our lives whether it’s the loss of a loved one, safety, our former world, a job, or a dream.  It can lay beneath the other emotions we experience daily if unattended to; it may be the grief of what wasn’t, what isn’t and what may never be.

Through guided conversations, personalized exercises, and group sharing, attendees can expect to gain a better understanding of the nature of grief, develop coping strategies, and cultivate a greater sense of emotional resilience and inner peace.

    Identifying and standing up to the Inner Critic
