Drawing on decades of experience with high-conflict personalities, Bill Eddy, LCSW, Esq., and Ekaterina Ricci, MDR, present the 2-step SLIC Solutions method: Setting Limits and Imposing Consequences.

With calm authority, it empowers readers to become more confident limit-setters-helping make families, organizations, and communities safer and more respectful places for all.
You'll learn five key questions to help ensure your consequences are realistic and effective. With real-world examples from families, workplaces, courtrooms, and communities, this book provides actionable strategies to regain control in even the most challenging situations.
SLIC Solutions is the fourth core method in the internationally respected CARS Method of conflict resolution-alongside Connecting (EAR Statements), Analyzing options, and Responding (BIFF Response). With clarity and compassion, this book shows how to communicate boundaries, follow through, and preserve relationships-without falling into manipulation traps.
Assert without aggression. Protect your peace. Strengthen your community.
