There will always be clients who tell you, “Nothing is ever going to change.”

There will always be clients who say, “I just can’t do this.”

These clients are tough.

But what if you had the tools to show hopeless clients how to believe in their own abilities to solve their most challenging problems, and help them to create the life of their dreams?

That’s what Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) can do. SFBT is an evidence-based, positivity-centered, results-driven approach that helps you enjoy quick wins with clients in a shorter amount of time.

We can show you how it’s done…

In this course, Elliott Connie, MA, LPC, Solution Focused Brief Therapy trainer, author, and psychotherapist walks you through the philosophical shift from problem to solution-oriented therapy — completely transforming your clinical practice.

No tricks, no theoretical rhetoric that takes years to understand – just simple, practical, innovative strategies that will transform your clients’ relationship with their perceived problems.

You’ll get real-world case examples, engaging stories, the opportunity to practice new skills, and in-session demonstrations.

With Solution Focused Brief Therapy, the emphasis is on the outcome.

For clients willing to take steps towards their desired outcomes — ready to focus on the present and future rather than the past — Solution Focused Brief Therapy is exactly what you need.

And it’s all available here…

Elliott Connie shows you how to help your clients reach their goals much faster as they get “unstuck” and draw on their existing resources and personal strengths.
