An overview will be provided of five high-conflict personality disorders, traits of which drive most high-conflict cases, including Borderline, Narcissistic, Histrionic, Antisocial, and Paranoid. What to do and what not to do with clients with these traits will be addressed, including four key skills:
Connecting with empathy, attention and respect (EAR); Analyzing Options with clients and others; Responding to hostility and misinformation with responses that are Brief, Informative, Friendly and Firm (BIFF); and Setting Limits on misbehavior with clients and others. Ways of presenting your case with useful information while avoiding use of the term personality disorder will be provided. A few tips for negotiation and mediation with high conflict personalities will be mentioned. There will be two short video clips and time for questions.
