Episode Overview
- Functional analysis helps understand triggers and consequences of behaviours
- Encourages self-awareness and intentional responses
- Empowers individuals to make positive changes in family dynamics
- Implementing solutions based on functional analysis insights
- Continued learning and adapting for lasting impact
The functional analysis does not operate in a vacuum because you could see what the dynamic is, and then you need to move on to the other modules so that you have choices about what you can do with that information.
Imagine being able to decode the patterns behind your loved one's behaviour. In this episode of 'Coming Up for Air', hosts Laurie McDougall and Annie Highwater dive into the concept of functional analysis. They break down how understanding what happens before, during, and after a particular behaviour can be a game-changer for families dealing with addiction. Whether it's a challenging outburst or a rare moment of connection, these insights help you see the hidden triggers and consequences at play.
Functional analysis isn't just about observation; it's about turning that awareness into actionable steps. Laurie and Annie discuss how you can move from feeling reactive and overwhelmed to being conscious and in control. By dissecting behaviours into manageable pieces, you can start to influence those moments in a positive way. This episode is packed with practical advice, from recognizing emotional cues to implementing effective CRAFT tools.
It's about fostering empathy and intention in your responses, ultimately creating a more supportive environment for everyone involved. If you're looking to understand your loved one's actions better and find ways to respond that promote healing and growth, this episode offers valuable tools and perspectives.
