Another approach emphasizes communication skills training to help people handle conflict, set boundaries, and express needs more clearly.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively with clients to decide which methods match their goals, personal style, and life situation, and then adapts the plan as progress is reviewed.
