Express Yourself Pro Lesson Plan

Participants will identify and accurately name a range of emotions, practice expressing those feelings through guided role-play, and create personalized self-advocacy scripts to strengthen therapeutic interactions and team collaboration.

Effective emotional expression and self-advocacy are essential for clinical staff to foster empathy, manage client relationships, and communicate assertively with colleagues, improving overall team cohesion and care quality.
