4-Hour Interactive Training: Healthy Boundaries for Helping Professionals

This NEW 4-hour interactive training is ideal for Recovery Coaches, Peer Specialists, and all helping roles.

Maintaining healthy boundaries is one of the most essential and often overlooked skills in any helping profession. Whether you’re a Recovery Coach, Peer Specialist, or someone who simply supports others, clear and compassionate boundaries are what protect your well-being, strengthen relationships, and ensure you can show up fully for those you serve.

If you’ve ever struggled with boundaries, made mistakes in the past, felt burned out, or simply get anxious when setting limits, this is the training for you.

Through interactive discussions, real-world scenarios, and hands-on exercises, you’ll gain the tools and confidence you need to establish, communicate, and maintain healthy boundaries in both professional and personal settings.

This Training is approved by NYCB and meets the 4 Hr. Ethics Renewal requirement for CRPA’s and CARC’s. It is also approved for 4 CARC Elective CE’s. For details on NYCB Certification Renewal click here
