What is solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT)? It is a forward-looking, conversational approach that emphasises client strengths and solutions rather than analysing problems. This course offers a journey into the world of solution-oriented methods and offers practical tools to support positive change through goal-orientated conversations. Learn how to apply techniques such as the Miracle Question, scaling questions, and solution-focused goal setting within a non-clinical coaching, educational or personal development context.

You’ll begin by exploring the core principles of SFBT, including its origins, key figures, and strengths-based approach. From there, you’ll develop communication skills that foster solution-building conversations and future-focused thinking. Learn how to set SMART goals, uncover strengths, and apply powerful techniques like the Miracle Question, exception-finding, and scaling to measure progress, within the scope of coaching, education, or other supportive roles. You'll also examine how these principles are used across various settings, including schools, workplaces, and wellness or care-based environments.
By the end of the course, you’ll have gained a strong understanding of how to apply SFBT techniques in non-clinical contexts and confidently support others in exploring their own solutions, building on their strengths, and setting meaningful goals.
