Solution Focused Therapy Training
The approach will really help us to support the team when we have members with challenging behaviour. I love the idea of “Good intent”, Reframing and Scaling. The Change Balloon exercise I also found invaluable and a useful tool in deciding those small changes. Creative, enthusiastic, knowledgable trainer.

A positive and useful framework to help bring about change for members. This range of tools will aid all teams to help people plan and develop new approaches to coping and making small, important changes. Engaging, enjoyable, informative.

The training will enable me to not give up when there is a problem. It has changed my thought process and how to deal with not only negatives around me, but also my own negatives in a more proactive way. Fantastic course – highly recommend.

I shall make use of the ‘exceptions” particularly for pupils who have subject/teacher related fears. I will definitely use The Silent Session for example with pupils to develop understanding of coping strategies. I will continue to be curious and use analogies. I thoroughly enjoyed the two says, more specifically – I liked that the delivery was NOT power-point driven, was not “content heavy” – it was all about practice and less about postulating theory and process. The training was very fresh, very original and very entertaining.

This training will enable me to utilize The Silent Session, contribute to young people owning their emotions and confronting their dilemmas and also promote the performance of meaningful dialogue with colleagues and clients. I thoroughly enjoyed the brisk, engaging manner this trainer demonstrated.

The effect on my work? Focus on the exceptions to the helpful behaviors; set small achievable targets; use The Change Balloon with families. I really enjoyed the pace, humor and style of the training. The balance between theory and practical was perfect.

Working in assessment, the training will help to effect change even when in crisis situations – the Solution Focused Approach is an amazing tool that subtly helps client to recognize and build upon their own strengths to find a way forward. I will use this every day. It was by far the most beneficial training I’ve had in my 30 year career and I hope to do it all again sometime.
Social Worker for West Berkshire Council in Berkshire
This training will affect my work in so many ways! It will enable me to empower the students more by helping them to discover their own solutions. This was, quite honestly, the most fascinating, interesting, empowering training I have ever been on. I wish I had done this years ago, both for my own benefit and in my professional life. My attention was caught for the full two days – I’m sad its over.
