Training overview:
Are you ready to empower clients by tapping into their strengths? This 2-day (14-hour) workshop introduces Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), a powerful, strengths-based approach that helps individuals, couples, and families create rapid and positive change. SFBT is rooted in the belief that people are inherently resourceful and capable of finding their own solutions. This workshop will provide you with the foundational knowledge and practical skills to apply SFBT techniques in your practice, moving away from problem-focused approaches and toward collaborative solution-building. Through interactive exercises, role-playing, and case studies, you'll learn how to guide clients in identifying their strengths, exploring exceptions to their problems, and developing concrete action steps toward achieving their goals.
The workshop is designed for counseling and therapy students who have basic counseling skill training and experienced practitioners who want to explore a strengths-based brief therapeutic approach.

Navigating Cancer and Chronic Illness Caregiving: Finding Strength and Hope for the Journey
Training overview:
Cancer and chronic illnesses touch the lives of individuals and communities in profound ways, including those within Christian circles. This interactive workshop is designed to equip caregivers of cancer patients and individuals with severe chronic illnesses with practical tools and spiritual insights to navigate the challenges of caregiving. It also focuses on nurturing emotional, relational, and spiritual well-being with confidence and compassion.
Reframed to challenge common myths and anchored in biblical truths, the sessions aim to provide clarity and guidance on caregiving through a Christ-centred lens while addressing self-care. Participants will leave feeling empowered to care for their loved ones—and themselves—by drawing strength from God’s Word and the support of a faith-based community.
Additionally, participants will gain ideas and strategies for building a cancer and chronic illness care ministry within their church community.
This 6-hour workshop is designed for adults in the Christian communities, including pastoral staff, lay leaders, helpers, and caregivers.

Suicide Prevention QPR Gatekeeper Training
Training overview:
What is QPR?
QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer — the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide.
Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Manoeuvre help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. Each year thousands of people, like you, are saying "Yes" to saving the life of a friend, colleague, sibling, student, or neighbour, by becoming a trained QPR Gatekeeper.
What is a Gatekeeper?
According to the Surgeon General’s National Strategy for Suicide Prevention (2001), a gatekeeper is someone in a position to recognize a crisis and the warning signs that someone may be contemplating suicide.
Gatekeepers can be anyone, but include parents, friends, neighbours, teachers & lecturers, students, ministers, doctors, nurses, office supervisors, managers, police officers, advisors, caseworkers, firefighters, and many others who are strategically positioned to recognize and refer someone at risk of suicide.
