Communicating with a client who has been diagnosed with a mental illness can be frustrating and emotionally draining. Being in a position of “the authority” can create walls between you and the other person and will prevent authentic connection and growth from occurring.

This guidebook offers a system called Nonviolent Communication that will give you specific tools you can use to support your clients, point them in the direction of health and balance, and maintain honest, open dialogues. You will learn how to transform negative patterns and bridge the gap that separates you from your clients, find out what words are likely to trigger defensive reactions from them, and discover what you can say that will create safety and open-hearted communication. The guidebook demonstrates how to be compassionate to others even when you don’t agree with their point of view and will offer ways you can care for yourself in the midst of the challenges you are facing.
