Counsellors, therapists, social workers, educators, and helping professionals eager to spark meaningful change! Dive into SFBT, a globally celebrated, hope-filled approach that pivots from problem fixation to possibility creation. Rooted in systems thinking and infused with the neuroscience of emotion and change, this workshop will sharpen your stance, refine your language, and empower you to work with greater impact across diverse systems - individuals, couples, families, and teams.

Building on the robust foundation of SFBT’s original evidence-based framework, this training expands to embrace clients’ emotional, cultural and contextual worlds. You’ll master the art of co-creating change by tuning into what matters most, wielding curiosity to uncover strengths and sparking progress toward clients’ preferred futures. Perfect for professionals in therapeutic, community, education, or health settings who know SFBT basics and want to renew and elevate their systemic practice. It’s also ideal for those seeking strengths-based, future-focused methods aligned with trauma-informed, brain-aware approaches that can be applied to a range of mental health, well-being and relational issues including anxiety, depression and trauma.
