DEVELOPING A LIFE PRACTICE TO PROMOTE NON-VIOLENCE AND NEGOTIATE AGREEMENT

GETTING UNSTUCK

Life can get tough. Your behaviors have taken you down treacherous paths or maybe bad luck just seems to follow you around, no matter how hard you try to ‘fix’ things. It feels like the deck of cards is stacked against you and there is no way out. Life did not come with a manual and you’re constantly being tested and challenged. Your (re)actions may have hurt your loved ones, your children and yourself. These actions can’t be undone. Maybe you’re starting to realize this.

This is when most people get mentally ‘stuck’.

BATTERER’S INTERVENTION PROGRAM FOR OFFENDERS

Mastery Solutions’ Signature Platinum program: Batterer’s Intervention Program For Offenders/ Mastery Solutions’ Clase Contra la Violencia Domestica (BIP in Spanish)
 
This program is referred to as ‘Platinum BIP’.
Developed after countless hours of training and education with national provider networks combined with years of interacting with mandated groups.
 
”Disclaimer: This class is not for everyone. Motivation and attitude problems will get you referred elsewhere.”
 
Why the disclaimer?
The most successful BIP programs in the nation are up to 52 weeks in length. Florida Statute requires a minimum of 29 weeks, which means that there’s only a limited number of contact hours available to educate, elicit, consolidate and monitor positive changes.

This program is intensive, fast-paced and highly interactive; seating is limited.

 
Acceptance into the program is at the provider’s discretion; clients with motivation and behavior management issues will be advised to attend elsewhere.
 

Duration: 29 weeks, per Florida Statute 741.325                              
Classes are in-person, GROUP only
Culturally responsive and modified for Latinx communities.

ANGER MANAGEMENT SKILLS TRAINING

Mastery Solutions’ Signature program: Stress, Anger and Destructive Irritability / Mastery Solutions’ Clase Contra el Enojo (Spanish)
 

Standard Anger Management courses are widely known to be tedious or too ”preachy” or ”dry”. As a result, client retention is low and recidivism/relapse is high. This is a known treatment outcome with mandated populations. In 2019, the Mastery Solutions team took the leap and decided to develop their own signature anger management program! Two years later, after being tried, tested, and critiqued by offenders and their probation officers, we’re able to say with confidence that the program WORKS!

It is successful in keeping the clients engaged, curious and eager to learn. The material is visually appealing and invites introspection and open discussions.

The material covers:

  • Emotional Awareness
  • Arousal Reduction and Stress Management
  • Addressing Trauma and Inner Dialogues
  • Reframing and Coping Skills
  • Environment Management
  • Assertiveness and Communication Skills 

Duration: 16-18 sessions

Classes offered via Zoom (individual) or in-person (individual/group).
Culturally responsive and modified for Latinx communities.
