Many factors impact how we respond in ethical gray areas, including:

  • How to identify and address a conflict of interest.

It is common to encounter situations that just don’t feel right.

Working through Crisis: Strategies to Support Yourself and Clients

Speaker Josh Dye

Working through Crisis: Strategies to Support Yourself and Clients

Right now many people are working through a crisis. The ongoing pandemic and recent staff and service shortages are creating incredible challenges for clients and the professionals that help meet their basic needs.

To survive this moment we need more than basic coping mechanisms. We need resilient strategies that help us physically and emotionally endure whatever we are facing. We also need tips to engage with clients when things get tough that are beyond our control. 

In this training we will explore: (Learning Objectives)

  • How to establish healthy personal and professional boundaries.
  • How to become more emotionally resilient.
  • How to effectively communicate with clients when challenges arise.
  • What to do when it seems like there are no good options.

How to Set Healthy Boundaries

Are you tired of bending over backwards for everyone else while no one really looks out for you?

Does it feel like you are always trying to make others happy, and if you ever dare set a limit, you get pushback or guilt trips?

Do you secretly fear saying no because you’re worried people will no long value, or even like you, if you do?

If so, this is the webinar for you.

When you KNOW where your boundaries are and can communicate them confidently, all this will change.

 In this webinar you will learn how to:

  • Stand firm in your limits and teach others to respect them too.
  • Stop feeling pushed around and talked into things you really don’t want to do.
  • Stop feeling so trapped with all the daily expectations and, instead just slow down and enjoy your life.
  • Say no without worrying that people will no longer like or value you.
  • End the need to justify your choices- and feel GOOD about listening to and living your own life for a change.

Get ready to put the right boundaries in place, and start listening to yourself and confidently setting your limits without feeling guilty, stressed or selfish.

About the Speaker: Julia Kristina

Julia is a world class therapist, teacher and speaker who has a natural ability to connect with both individuals and groups because of how she is able to bring deep conversations to the surface, and bring clarity to the complex things that make us perfectly imperfect beings.

From the moment Julia Kristina learned that there was such thing as a job where one could help another human being grow, heal and make changes that would transform their lives, and thus the lives of generations to come, she knew she had to do whatever it took to become a therapist.

Shortly after becoming a therapist, she realized that her love of therapy was followed closely by her love of teaching and public speaking – but being a mom of small children, wasn’t willing to spend her evenings and weekends at social and networking events to build out this part of her business, so she hopped online and started giving live mental wellness and personal development talks to what quickly became an audience of thousands of raving fans and followers that connected instantly with her honest, clear, yet easy and relatable way of communicating.

From there, she’s been invited to speak at regional and national conferences and on news segments as an mental wellness and mindset expert, has created her own suite of personal development courses, programs and seminars, and most recently, Julia and her Associates have began bringing their expertise to their local community through in-person corporate lunch and learns and day long or multi day workshops and trainings.
