Assertiveness is a communication style in which a person stands up for their own needs and beliefs, while also respecting the needs of others. Assertive communication is defined by mutual respect, diplomacy, and directness.

Our Assertive Communication worksheet includes one page of psychoeducation, and a second page of practice exercises, that will help your clients learn to use assertive communication in their own lives.

The psychoeducation portion of the worksheet defines assertive communication, and presents practical tips and examples. The practice portion of the worksheet presents four scenarios which can be answered on the page, or used for role-playing.
