Course Description

In their lives outside the therapy office, our clients live, work, and play with other people. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) has always emphasized what people do when they are not seeing us. Bring your examples of how you use conversations about relationships to drive solution building. This meeting will be a collaborative conversation.

Since 2010, the Hudson Valley Solution Focused Network (HVSFN) has been facilitating SFBT discussions—a model supported by evidence-based research.

This session is intended for participants who are familiar with SFBT and are currently using the model in their practice, though all are welcome to bring their curiosity. You can watch a podcast episode featuring the Hudson Valley Solution Focused Network on YouTube.

If you'd like more background information on the therapy model itself, visit the Wikipedia page on Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.

Learning Objectives

Co-construct a conversation with clients about a better life.
Discuss the application of solution-focused therapy.
Apply solution-focused techniques through case examples to demonstrate practical implementation.
Analyze ways to implement solution-focused strategies within problem-saturated systems.
