Basic Skills Training
Basic skills training (BST) is a one-on-one treatment modality where a basic skills worker will come to your home or the community and help teach basic skills. Basic skills that can be taught include: basic living and self-care skills such as washing dishes and other personal hygiene responsibilities, social skills, communication skills, organizational and time management skills. These skills are taught in conjunction with individual therapy and overseen by licensed therapists.
Psychosocial Rehabilitative Skills
Psychosocial rehabilitative skills (PSR) are also a one on one treatment modality where a psychosocial rehabilitative skills worker comes to your home and community and works on improving interpersonal skills within a social environment. This can mean teaching a client how to manage their interpersonal emotions by learning to positively redirect anger, manage conflicts, and express feelings in an appropriate manner. PSR can also focus on helping clients learn appropriate social skills and boundaries, how to identify and resolve problems, communicate effectively, be self-sufficient, and develop emotional intimacy with others. Unlike, BST, PSR is focused on gaining insight into the client’s problem area. PSR is also used in conjunction with individual therapy and overseen by licensed therapists.
