Summary:

"In this training video, Dr. Bob Alberti teaches the nuts and bolts of assertiveness skills. Alberti explores this topic with the help of a live studio audience of men and women grappling with different issues in the stages of recovery from substance abuse. Through role-plays and discussion, he teaches a step-by-step process for how to become a more assertive person, demonstrating respect for yourself and the other person. Exercises focus on essential aspects of assertiveness training such as nonverbal behavior, saying no, using "I" messages, and, most importantly, remembering that you have a right to stand up for yourself. You will learn techniques and strategies that will give people in recovery choices on how and when to be assertive, and enable them to navigate challenging life situations without compromising their self-respect and commitment to recovery. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions." Supplied by publisher.
