learn how to UNDERSTAND and MANAGE High Conflict personalities

Start with an overview of common traits of five personality disorders that often result in high conflict situations:

BORDERLINE

NARCISSISTIC

HISTRIONIC

ANTISOCIAL

PARANOID

Review related brain research and learn dos and don'ts for working with these types of clients. While managing people with high conflict personalities (HCPs) often involves skills that are the opposite of what we feel like doing, the program will provide techniques to ensure your practice is not overwhelmed or your case thrown off course.

Leave with tactics for navigating these relationships, including:

• Connecting using the EAR method (empathy, attention and respect)
• Productive ways to analyze options with clients and others
• Employing the BIFF method (Brief, Informative, Friendly and Firm) to respond to hostility and misinformation
• Setting limits on misbehavior with clients and others

No matter your area of practice, this program will help you be more effective and productive while also allowing you to maintain your own balance and take a calmer approach to conflict.
