About the webinar

Level: Intermediate

Knowing how to best support an individual who is experiencing mental distress can be challenging. This webinar is an introduction to de-escalation techniques that can be used to support and engage individuals in distress. Trainers will explore engagement strategies that are trauma-informed, provide examples of how to apply de-escalation techniques, and help learners to understand the importance of maintaining professional boundaries that keep all parties safe in challenging situations.

In this webinar you will learn how to:

  • Develop a trauma-informed approach to de-escalation, including awareness of how racialized trauma can present itself

  • Set professional boundaries as a means to keep all parties safe in a challenging situation

  • Apply key elements of de-escalation strategies
