Online Workshop: Managing Challenging Behaviours
March 9 @ 9:30 am - 12:30 pm AEDT
$220
Learn strategies to diffuse difficult situations, manage intense emotions, and move towards positive solutions.
Everyone gets frustrated or angry on occasion, particularly when they are under pressure. Most people deal with their anger and frustrations in ways that are socially acceptable and appropriate. Other people however, may deal with their anger and other strong emotions in unhelpful ways that do not lead to a resolution. They may even make the situation worse.
In this workshop, we will discuss and practice strategies that you can use to diffuse situations where clients, colleagues or community members may be exhibiting strong emotions and/or difficult behaviours. When using these strategies, it is important to have an understanding of your own particular triggers and how you can manage your own emotions.

- explain how and why people react to difficult situations physically and emotionally
