Single Session Family Consultation In Practice

Download workshop information

SSFC In-Practice is a half‑day implementation workshop that supports participants in developing their skills in applying  SSFC to their  practice, focusing on the convening, conducting, and follow‑up stages. Designed as a practical companion to the Bouverie Centre’s self‑paced online SSFC course, it helps bridge the gap between theory and practice through hands‑on learning in a supportive small‑group setting, with particular emphasis on feedback to deepen learning and confidence.

Who should attend

SSFC in Practice is relevant for those who want a clear and straightforward practice model for engaging and including families in their work, but who are not family therapists. It is particularly suitable for those working in individually oriented services for adults and young people (such as mental health and alcohol and drug services) where working with families is not the primary focus.

Prior knowledge

Learning outcomes

By attending this workshop, you will:

  • Build on your existing knowledge of SSFC as a practical, doable model of family engagement and inclusion
  • Have a unique opportunity to practice skills of SSFC in a supportive small group setting where you will receive relevant and helpful feedback
  • Become ‘practice ready’ in the use of SSFC
  • Be able to work through the issues of how to get started in making SSFC part of your current practice

Workshop style

This is an implementation-focused workshop led by a subject expert who is also a clinician. There will be small group practice activities and case discussions, along with the exploration of ideas to help make SSFC part of your practice repertoire.

You will have the opportunity to ask questions about any aspect of SSFC and its applications and receive advice about how to start using SSFC within your work role and setting.
