Workshop Description
What do clients mean when they use the term “trauma”? We will have a discussion about how we co-construct useful conversations with clients about what their vision of a better life means.
While this discussion is intended for participants who have completed an introductory solution-focused course and are currently using the model in their practice, all are welcome to bring their expertise.

This workshop will be offered in a hybrid form, meaning participants can access the workshop either in-person at UAlbany or online via Zoom. Online registration is separate from in-person, and available only to registrants who have completed a Solution Focused Breif Therapy Level 1 or Level 2 training, or are a part of the Hudson Valley Solution Focused Network.
