quick tips

[STRESS]​

  • Start from a place of concern or support. For example, "You seem stressed lately and I want you to know I'm here for you."

  • Be specific about what you've seen or heard that is causing you concern.

  • Really listen to them and be patient. Put away phones and listen for specific emotions they are sharing.
