What is ASIST?
ASIST is a resource for the whole community. It helps people apply suicide first-aid in many settings: with family, friends, co-workers, and teammates, as well as formal caregiving roles. Many organizations have incorporated ASIST into professional development for their employees. Its widespread use in various communities creates a common language to understand suicide safety issues and communicate across different organizational backgrounds.
LivingWorks’ ASIST program is supported by numerous evaluations including independent and peer-reviewed studies. Results demonstrate that ASIST helps participants become more willing, ready, and able to intervene with someone at risk of suicide.

Course Description
Day in and out, you feel frustrated with your present circumstances. Like there’s no way out.
- Whether as a healthcare/helping professional emotionally burnt out from constantly interacting with people
- Or as a parent exasperated with your child who doesn’t want to listen to anything you say
- Or as an individual, tired of your interactions with certain people that almost always seem to end in an intense argument.
Along the way you might’ve asked yourself these things as well:
- “What did I do wrong? Is it just me that’s too sensitive/unreasonable/impatient?”
- “Should I just give up?”
But asking the wrong questions when trying to process your experiences can lead you into a downward spiral of self-criticism and doubt.
Reflexive Practice teaches you the right questions to ask yourself so that you can:
- Make sense of your experiences constructively
- Connect with your inner-self and gain insight into why you respond in certain ways or make certain decisions
- Gain clarity about your values and priorities to guide your future actions
Join us for this course on Reflexive Practice to turn your experiences into insightful strategies for personal and professional growth!”

Reflective practice is a systematic process to guide our thinking and reflections. Acquire the skills and techniques to tap into your experience to enhance your effectiveness and to cultivate a habit of continuous learning.

- Use various methods of reflective practice to sharpen day-to-day personal, family, and professional effectiveness
