Interpersonal effectiveness teaches individuals how to assertively communicate their needs, set boundaries, and decline requests respectfully.
Clients learn different strategies for making requests and refusing demands, ranging from indirect hints to firm, assertive communication. This flexibility helps them navigate complex interpersonal dynamics more effectively.
Clients benefit from plain language, avoid technical DBT terms like interpersonal effectiveness, and instead focus on practical skills like communication and conflict management.
