This skill is part of an active rotation but the public session page is still being authored. The clinical content is taught weekly in group; what gets published here is the standalone version, written so a clinician or a person in the work can read it without a facilitator in the room.

Drop your email below if you want to know when the Opposite Action session goes live, or browse the rest of the curriculum to find what is already written.
