Overcoming Your Fear of Confrontation
People who avoid confrontation often make excuses for their behavior, Consequently, the problem never gets resolved and the distressed individual continues to suffer. Confrontation in an assertive but kind matter doesn’t have to be scary. It may create a space for positive change.
During this session we will explore:
- The difference between a healthy and unhealthy conflict is that a healthy conflict does not come from a place of maliciousness.
- Ways to help identify the root of your fear when faced with conflict.
- How to look for enabling self-talk about avoiding confrontation to eliminate it.
- How to avoid using accusatory language. Use “I” statements, if possible.
