The purpose of assertiveness training is to teach persons appropriate strategies for identifying
and acting on their desires, needs, and opinions while remaining respectful of others. This form
of training is tailored to the needs of specific participants and the situations they find particularly
challenging. Assertiveness training is a broad approach that can be applied to many different
personal, academic, health care, and work situations.

Psychologists use assertiveness training, which is a behavioral technique, combined with
traditional psychotherapy, to help you develop the necessary social skills to manage
interpersonal situations more effectively, and to feel better about yourself in those interpersonal
situations. In particular, assertiveness training teaches you how to refuse unreasonable requests
from others, how to assert your rights in a non-aggressive manner, and how to negotiate to get
what you want in your relationships with others.
