The absence of respect, kindness, and shared understanding in our professional and personal interactions not only diminishes the health and well-being of our society but also has a profound psychological and emotional impact on the individual. Chronic incivility often produces a state of “fight or flight,” where the symptoms of stress range from depression to anxiety to addiction to lowered self-esteem to diminished capacity.

Our Civility Training programs are specifically designed to address the stresses of incivility directly, equipping individuals with the tools they need to step outside the emotionally and psychologically destructive systems of attack and defense. Participants learn to recontextualize their experience of themselves and others in ways that produce healthier, less stressful, and more productive outcomes.
