Your most popular FAQs

What are coping skills?

Strategies a person uses to manage stress, difficult emotions or urges: grounding, paced breathing, cognitive reframing, behavioral activation, distraction, self-soothing, seeking support and problem solving, among others. Different skills fit different situations.

What makes a coping skills list useful to a client?

Specificity. A generic printable list gets ignored; a one-page list of the tools you actually taught this client, in the words you used and tied to the situations they face, gets used. Fewer, familiar skills beat a long menu.

How does Upheal Assistant build the cheat sheet?

From the strategies you and the client covered in sessions. It lists each tool, when it applies and how you described it, on one page you can review and share.

Can I share the cheat sheet with the client?

That is what it is for. Review it, adjust the wording to match how you taught each skill, then share it the way you share any handout. Nothing goes to the client until you send it.
