Solution Focused Therapy Training
I found the training brilliant and feel that it had an immediate and direct positive impact on my work with young people, families and victims. A well organized, structured and enjoyable training environment.

The training will allow me to continue to think more clearly and deeply about the conversations I have with young people and victims and how to best use these as a means of working towards supporting the restorative process.

This course has given support to a number of approaches we currently use within our work. It has also provided me with the opportunity to consider new ways to support the young people I work with – this includes new tools and techniques that I will incorporate into my work to help pupils with more complex needs. Excellent training sessions – well planned and presented. Mawuli was an engaging facilitator whose use of “real-world” examples demonstrated the effectiveness of this Approach.

SFBT working will change the way I approach work with young people and families. We often focus on the client’s “problems” and how to “solve” them but SFBT emphasises working in partnership with clients to identify what is working well for them. I particularly liked The Change Balloon, Monitoring Sheets and the “Notice Board”.
Education Welfare Officer for Education Welfare Service in Derry/Londonderry
The training will give me a structure to be mindful of before I start work with people. I enjoyed the approach which was taken by Mawuli – he was very well prepared and enthusiastic and gave useful examples of when and how to use the Solution Focused Approach. I also enjoyed the sense of fun that he brought to the course.

I can immediately use the training on a day-to-day basis: scaling, future talk, the Change Balloon are all simple, but highly effective strategies for helping people move forward who are “stuck” to seeing possibilities. I also loved The Silent Session The training was refreshing, positive and motivating – the mixed group of professionals added to the positive experience.

It will have a very positive effect on my work with young people and will offer an efficient way of building for the future. The delivery of the course was excellent.
Team Member for Laurel Centre in Derry/Londonderry
This training has provided an understanding of the skills needed to implement Solution Focused interventions with young people within the context of education. A realistic and practical approach that I can use on a daily basis in my work with the children and their families involved with our Service. A most enjoyable, informative three days training that has been invaluable to my own development as a practitioner.

The training stimulated thoughts of more inventive ways of working. This helped me to think of different approach which I will attempt to use on my next shift. I enjoyed the presentation – I get bored easlily but this held my attention throughout.
