This training is designed to introduce you to a strength-based approach to supporting individuals with complex needs - which might include a history of traumatic life events, homelessness, addictions, mental health diagnoses, physical health problems and more.

To do so, we will be learning a particular method and set of techniques borrowed from solution focussed brief therapy. This method offers a powerful and rewarding way of working with people, by shifting the focus of the work from trying to understand problems, to supporting the development of solutions.

Over four modules, we will guide you through the approach from beginning to end. First, you’ll learn about the meaning, principles and underlying assumptions of a strengths-based and solution-focussed approach.
