How to Set Boundaries in Relationships with Mandy Goodwin Caporaletti, Ph.D.
How to Set Boundaries and Manage Perceptions in Relationships with Mandy Goodwin Caporaletti, Ph.D.
How to Set Boundaries
Many people don’t even realize that they need boundaries. Once they do realize they need them, they don’t know how to set them. If they are able to set them, they often don’t know how to enforce them. I can discuss steps to take to make sure good boundaries are set, maintained, and enforced.
How to Manage Perceptions in a Relationship
When our relationship with someone is in a good place, we are more likely to brush off the less desirable things that they do. When we are facing a few bumps in the road, or are feeling stressed, those same behaviors that we could brush off may not seem so negligible anymore. I can discuss how to recognize when people are making unfavorable attributions about their relational partner and to not negatively affect the relationship.
How to Communicate More Assertively
Sometimes people have a hard time saying “no.” Sometimes people have a personal need, but don’t know how to express it to get the results that they want. I can discuss strategies people can use to say what they mean and get results, without fear of being seen as unhelpful or bossy or aggressive.

-How can someone practice assertive communication without being seen as unhelpful or bossy, and what is the line between being assertive and actually being unreasonable and hard to live with?
