Supporting Someone in Distress Workshop

Most of us want to support and show compassion to others, however supporting others can often feel awkward. Being fully present with a person in distress often means having uncomfortable conversations. It can be difficult to know how to provide effective and meaningful support, or useful information that assists the person in accessing help.

While there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach to supporting others, this session will cover a  simple  approach to help you determine what  type of help is needed, some strategies for providing effective support, as well as when and how to refer someone to appropriate  resources. A comprehensive list of resources will be provided.
