Supporting a loved one with depression can be challenging, especially when it comes to communication. You may be met with resistance, heightened emotions, or difficulty discussing sensitive topics. Instead of giving up or pushing too hard, family caregivers need effective strategies to maintain open, supportive dialogue.
In this webinar, Dr. Chris Segrin will guide you through four real-world scenarios caregivers often face supporting loved ones through depression. You’ll learn practical communication techniques for discussing depression symptoms, navigating conversations about professional help, using de-escalation strategies, and addressing trauma-related challenges with sensitivity.
By developing these essential communication skills, family caregivers can better connect with their loved ones and provide more effective support on their mental health journey.
