Enhance your conversation skills with this SFBT course that empowers you to create better outcomes in your professional or helping roles!
This SFBT course is all about giving you the super handy tools to help others through effective conversations. It’s a fun blend of video lectures, quizzes, and real-life examples that make learning exciting and practical!
Learn SFBT skills for creative conversations and better outcomes. With video of live sessions.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is an approach to conversations that empowers both helpers and those they help. The approach brings with it a wealth of easily learned and adaptable techniques that will enhance your skills, in any professional context.
This course uses video lectures and will be of use if your work involves helping people tackle some aspect of their lives that has become problematic.
The concise video lessons in this course are supported by 'live session' video clips that both illustrate the techniques and demonstrate the effectiveness of SFBT in action. Each section is supported by a quiz to consolidate your learning, and there are downloadable PDFs and exercises to help you become more practised and confident in using solution-focused skills in your conversations.
Who is it for?
Maybe your job is formally recognised as part of the helping professions because it involves supporting people (e.g. HR, social work, counselling or psychiatry).
Or perhaps you work or volunteer in a wider group which includes roles like advocacy, charity and aid work, the law, mediation, medicine, occupational health, probation, physiotherapy, social work, teaching, and many others.
Your primary role is not seen as caring or support, but your daily routine inevitably involves helping people in crisis or distress. You are one of many ‘informal helpers’ who use the same skills as the first group – essentially these are the skills of counselling – yet you have had little or no training to develop their helping skills.
Use solution-focused techniques and ideas to shape outcome oriented conversations with others.
Understand the purpose of a variety of techniques associated with the solution-focused approach and apply them.

Yes, I enjoyed the course. It provided a realistic overview of the process with the videos.
Like the course, only wish there was more opportunity to practice with more examples or longer quizzes
great experience
great match
I loved the real-life session example! All the techniques and theories in the world are great, but as a student, I need to see the real work in action. Thank you for doing that and thank her for being willing and vulnerable in public like that!
I like it because I can learn at my own pace and review the class. Also, I am not over thrown with a bunch of definitions. They are introduced 1 by 1. Helping me understand and restudy if I have a doubt.
Very insightful. I love the practical demo. Thank you!
I didn't expect much of such a short course. Wow, actually it was useful for me in remembering the basics of the SFBT approach, and the practical material - excerpts from client sessions - were invaluable. Thank you for vivid explanations, clear logic and soft approach to presenting this material. Back to my SF practice now!
I was able to use some of the tools from this course in my practicum.

Very well planned and executed. It was easy to learn especially with the demo and very clear and simple language.
