Solution Focused Therapy Training
I will use it more within Supervision with my team. This approach will be really helpful both personally and professionally. It allows the opportunity to reflect and re-focus. I found the training both inspiring and thought-provoking. The Facilitator was very skilled in engaging the attendees.

Eileen Murphy was fantastic – truly inspiring!
Intensive Family Support for Catch 22, Blacon Children's Centre in Chester
I will use everything I have learnt to support children and families – especially those who feel they are unable to make a change. It will help me to focus on my role as a “facilitator” rather than just giving families strategies to help them. I thoroughly enjoyed the two days. Very thought provoking with lots of examples of working with Hard To Reach families and individuals. It was so refreshing to attend an inspiring two days – full of examples relevant to the families I work with.
Learning Mentor for JH Godwin Primary School in Chester
This course has enabled me to have much more confidence when working with children, young people and adults in order to effect change. The approach is so much more useful than just concentrating on the “why there is a difficulty”. The day was enjoyable, entertaining and so informative – I seemed to absorb so much information without being “talked” at. Eileen’s knowledge was so wide – we did not suffer “death by powerpoint”! I cannot think of when I have enjoyed or felt so inspired by a training day as I did then. Thank you.
Behaviour Support Teacher for Behaviour Service in Stockport, Cheshire
Having had some SFBT Training before, but not of this quality, it reinforced my knowledge base but gave me confidence to incorporate the method, language, tools etc that Eileen gave us. Our Core Team now has started working with children and we’re very keen and enthused to implement this training. This will have a great impact on school and therefore improve the life chances of our pupils. Very inspirational and moving – I thoroughly enjoyed my two days, so thought-provoking and humorous. She reminds you why you do the job you do!
Head of Safeguarding & Extended Services in St Helens, Merseyside
To be able to be aware of how language affects individuals. To be able to feel more confident about working with families and how to engage them in a more positive way! Really empowering and uplifting training and ideas.
Learning Assistant in St Helens, Merseyside
Within 24 hours I was conscious of language I used with our children. We are setting up training for our Pastoral Team. It completely revolutionised the way I think and deal with challenging pupils. I have teaching now for 27 years and this was the best training, the most energising, enlightening and inspirational 2 days I have ever spent. In the midst of a busy week, it completely energised me and gave me such a motivation to try new strategies. A huge thank you to Eileen who was just phenomenal as a trainer.
Assistant Head for St, Cuthberts Catholic Community College in St Helens
The training was very fun, lively and useful. I found the whole style perfect for my learning style. I really enjoyed all aspects of the training and particularly the practical tasks, i.e. The Silent Session – which I have raved about to my colleagues!
Senior Lecturer in Social Work for Sheffield Hallam University in Sheffield
Finding and identifying the “exceptions” will make all the difference to people written off by the system. Inspirational – loved it!
Theraputic Co-ordinator for Royal Oldham Hospital in Oldham
I am so encouraged to focus on the future rather than only what may have been in the past. I think that this approach will offer hope to our clients and help them realise that things have worked well in the past. I think that this will work well to raise self-esteem where there may have been none. I personally feel that I have been given new tools to do my job and look forward to using these with the families I work with. I enjoyed the two days training and could have stayed longer. Both trainers were very knowledgeable and made the days interesting and fun.
