Module 6: How to Say “No” Assertively
Overview
This CBT handout from the Centre for Clinical Interventions explores the difficulties individuals face in saying 'no' assertively. It outlines the negative emotional consequences of passive compliance, such as resentment and stress, while identifying common unhelpful beliefs that hinder assertive communication. The resource is designed for clients to understand these cognitive barriers and learn behavioral strategies for setting boundaries.
