Course Description

This course will explore didactically and experientially the tenets, assumptions and techniques of Solution-Focused work with these specific populations. Solution work with children and adolescents is similar in the posture we hold towards the adult: taking a collaborative stance, assuming competency and good intentions, seeing the child as an expert of his/her life, taking a not-knowing posture and allowing the client to generate their own solution as much as possible. The difference lies in deciding which 'tools' to use, how to make them fit the child's needs, and in becoming creative.

PLEASE NOTE: The SFBTC Program is undergoing a programmatic review over academic year 2023-2024, and courses have been scheduled up until August 2024 at which point the Program and courses will pause. More information will be shared as we near the end of the Program Review period.
