Find Out MoreWhen we are stuck in a problem we can lose sight of where we would prefer to be; a Solution Focused Approach will help you identify and achieve a better future – mostly in less than five meetings.
Find Out MoreWe are the world’s leading centre for solution focused practice in therapy and counselling as well as in coaching, leadership, team building and conflict resolution.
BRIEF’s training programme is the most extensive in the world providing inspiration to front-line workers in health, education and social care as well as to senior executives in both public and private enterprise. BRIEF has delivered training in every corner of the UK as well as in over 20 countries across 4 continents. We have worked with drug and alcohol services in Greece, mining managers in Western Australia, Abu Dhabi health service workers, the staff of a school for children with hearing difficulties in Beirut and managers from 28 countries working for a global business and household name.
Our learning from Summer School takes a time to process. I am beginning to have some ideas about where Summer School might take me but it is a bit early to write them down. So what can I say?
Congratulations to Stephan Natynczuk on the forthcoming publication of his book Solution-Focused Practice in Outdoor Therapy.

The Solution Focused approach can be used in a wide variety of fields and settings, ranging from therapy to management, and working with individuals or with groups. Solution Focused Groupwork, whether as therapy, training, support, coaching, or facilitation, and in classes, meetings and other settings, offers huge potential and can be a very cost-effective, practical and enjoyable way of working with several people at the same time, whether a few or several dozen.
If you are like us at BRIEF you will know your stuff but never quite know it enough! This will be a very interactive workshop for Solution Focused Practitioners in need of a top-up, refresher or wanting to obtain the BRIEF Certificate in Solution Focused Practice (following completion of the Foundation Course (Levels 1 – 3).
The course will be sufficiently practical for each participant to be able to begin using Solution Focused skills when they return to work. It will also provide a basis for continued self-development.
In 1987 Evan fell in love with Solution Focused Brief Therapy. Here Evan tries to begin to explain why - and why his passion for the approach has lasted so long with no signs of abating.
