LEARN BOLD NEW SOLUTION-FOCUSED APPROACHES FOR WORKING WITH THE TOUGHEST RELATIONSHIPS!
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy is an evidence-based approach that focuses on creating a preferred future rather than exploring the past. For those who work with clients who are struggling with high-conflict or intimate partner violence this means an empowering shift away from who is to blame and toward how they want their relationship to be. This requires that professionals adopt a different way of thinking, shift toward exploring safety and mutual trust, and have a strong sense of intentionality in every question.
Join us for a lively and interactional training with an internationally-recognized expert that will challenge the very foundation of how we think when working with intimate partner violence as we explore a “yes-and” way of interacting. Come prepared with questions and cases as we learn together!
Learn:
1. Explain the difference between problem-solving and Solution-Focused thinking
2. Understand Haesun Moon’s Dialogical Orientation Quadrant and explain how to use it for de-escalation
3. Identify two tools to lower the power differential between professional and client in session to increase safety.
