The S.A.F.E.R.® Method for De-escalation

Whether anger is a result of psychosis, intoxication, frustration, invalidation, neglect or other drivers, there are easy to apply strategies informed by robust learnings, that are effective when working with angry clients. We will explore research findings related to anger, the escalation cycle and introduce the highly effective, the S.A.F.E.R.® method.

Participants will learn how to:

• Identify influencing factors for risky, demanding, provocative and challenging behaviours
• Understand the factors that influence a more functional engagement with people impacted by a history of trauma and relationship dysfunction
• Deconstruct relationship challenges faced and common traps and pitfalls in our response
• Implement an effective process for an enhanced functional and emotionally contained relationship engagement.
