Solution focused training course for healthcare professionals

We offer a two-day training course which supports healthcare professionals to work with patients living with a long-term health condition within the community, hospitals and beyond.

Within the Clinical Health Psychology service, we support patients living with conditions such as cancer, diabetes, stroke, persistent pain and more. The course will teach you the principles of the solution focused approach so that you learn 'what truly matters' to people and to work with them as 'co-experts' in their own life.

By taking part in this training which has been accredited by the Personalised Care Institute, it will help you to have meaningful conversations with patients, their families and amongst colleagues.

See examples below of two types of conversations that could take place with a cancer patient experiencing anxiety, and a person living with persistent pain. Try out the interactive video to practice having a solution-focused conversation.
