About this Event

Conflict Management: Escaping the Drama Triangle

Participants will explore conflict and define re-enactment (the drama triangle) as behavior that is rooted in the neurobiological impacts of trauma. Participants will consider what drives behavior, learn about the window of tolerance, identify three different roles in the drama triangle, and learn empowering, practical strategies to escape the drama triangle in both professional and personal interactions.

This training provides three (3) contact hours, CEU applicable for most professions. A certificate of attendance will be provided via email after the class.
