WANT® TRAINING
Basic and Advanced Training Classes in Communication Skills
and WANT Training for Educators, Clinicians & Laypersons
WANT® Training for Effective Communication is based on Dr. Pat Allen's innovative and trademarked communication technique of Androgynous Semantic Realignment™, created and developed as a training program to teach people to get what they want out of life by asking for what they want and saying "no" to what they don't want.
And no, you don't have to be a coach or clinician to take these WANT Training classes. Using WANT Training, Dr. Pat Allen teaches you the principles underlying basic communication skills applicable in all areas of your life, how to make rational instead of emotional decisions, how to use ten phrases to avoid a fight, and how to use three techniques in a fight.
Classes also feature training segments on the concepts, philosophy and development of the psychotherapy technique of Transactional Analysis, in-depth study of Dr. Pat Allen's WANT Training for Effective Living, and the use of Amigo Talk™ and Duty Dating® principles in personal relationships.
