Solution-Focused Brief Therapy Conference

June 11, 2021

This conference includes two sessions, Collaborative Strengths-Based Family Therapy with High-Risk Adolescents and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Telehealth. 

Collaborative Strengths-Based Family Therapy with High-Risk Adolescents
In this “hands-on” practice-oriented webinar, participants will learn a strengths-based, eco-systemic family therapy approach that integrates the best elements of Solution-Focused, MRI Brief Strategic, Narrative, Post-Modern Systemic Therapy, ideas from empirically-supported family therapy approaches, mindfulness practices, expressive writing, and art therapy methods. There will be a strong emphasis on the use of self and tailor-fitting what we do therapeutically with the preferences, theories of change, goals, presenting difficulties, and family characteristics of the clients.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Telehealth (SFBT)
This session will provide participants with information that will increase their confidence in running SFBT sessions utilizing telehealth and telephonic health modalities.  Participants will also gain a broader understanding of the ethical concerns and implications of conducting telehealth sessions. The session will also cover how to structure SFBT sessions utilizing telehealth including collaborative documentation considerations, as well as billing and insurance considerations.

This conference is being held virtually.
