Channel Your Needs into Healthier Relationships

One of recovery’s blessings is a clear inner voice. We become finely attuned to all of our thoughts, feelings, desires and distastes, and we gain a true control over our lives. But we also need to effectively communicate those inner truths: first, to get what we need. Second, to create healthy relationships full of cooperation and mutual respect.

With good communication skills, we can establish our needs in ways that strengthen our relationships rather than challenge them. In this week’s webinar, therapist Lisa Knudsen provides clever strategies for repairing and maintaining healthy relationships using communication skills, including how to fight fairly and the respectful drawing of boundaries.
