Promote cognitive restructuring to rebuild a sense of control and reduce self-blame. Module 5: Behavioural Interventions Teach assertiveness and boundary-setting skills tailored to indirect hostility. Role-play effective behavioural responses to common passive-aggressive tactics. Reduce safety behaviours such as people-pleasing or emotional suppression. Module 6: Emotion Regulation and Self-Compassion Use mindfulness and emotional awareness techniques to manage internalised frustration or guilt. Support clients in developing a compassionate internal voice when feeling manipulated or dismissed. Reinforce skills for tolerating discomfort when asserting themselves.
