Safety Plan Worksheet

$3.00
Translation missing: en.products.product.view_full_details

A safety plan is a personalized guide that helps individuals manage their mental health when they experience negative thoughts and strong feelings. It includes identifying triggers, developing helpful techniques when feeling overwhelmed, and creating a list of supportive people to contact. Research shows that it can reduce the stress of decision-making, especially when they find it difficult to think clearly.

The Safety Plan Worksheet is a tool that teaches clients to create a personalized plan to manage their mental health. Clients need to fill out sections asking about their warning signs, activities that help them feel better, and more. This product comes with two versions of the safety plan - a 3-page My Personal Safety Plan, and 2-page My Safety Plan worksheet. Each version comes with a signature page to act as a contract for safety.

Completing and consistently following their safety plans will make kids and teens feel more prepared in handling tough situations, and become more resilient. Adults should regularly assess the risk of a crisis and offer support as needed. They can also help the child update their plan based on what works for them.
