What You'll Learn

This course teaches the core DBT Interpersonal Effectiveness skills — practical tools for communicating clearly, navigating conflict, and maintaining both honesty and compassion in relationships. Through structured lessons and real-world examples, you’ll learn how to:

  • Ask for what you need with clarity and confidence (DEAR MAN) 
  • Set boundaries without guilt 
  • Maintain self-respect in difficult conversations (FAST)  
  • Balance your needs with the needs of others (GIVE)  
  • Navigate conflict without getting overwhelmed or reactive  
  • Communicate from Wise Mind rather than fear, reactivity, or shutdown

These skills support healthier, more grounded relationships — with yourself and with others.

Who This Course is For

This course is a supportive fit if you:

  • Struggle to express your needs or ask for support 
  • Feel guilt or anxiety around setting limits  
  • Get overwhelmed during conflict or tough conversations  
  • Want stronger, clearer, more compassionate communication skills  
  • Lose your voice or overextend yourself in relationships  
  • Want relational tools that align with self-respect and personal values

Whether you’re hoping to strengthen communication with a partner, family member, coworker, or within your own internal dialogue, this course offers a grounded, supportive pathway.

How This Course Fits Into the Zenyasa Wellness Pathway

This course is part of the Zenyasa Wellness Embodied Wisdom learning path — a structured approach designed to help you connect with Wise Mind, speak from clarity, and maintain emotional wellbeing in your relationships.

In the Interpersonal Effectiveness course, you’ll learn through three integrated modes:

Education — clear lessons on DBT communication, boundary-setting, and relational skills  
Integration — reflective prompts that help you apply these skills in everyday interactions  
Embodiment — grounding practices that support clarity, confidence, and self-respect

These skills complement the emotional foundations built in Emotion Regulation and the crisis support learned in Distress Tolerance — creating a full DBT toolkit for emotional and relational steadiness.
