John Sebold and Adriana Uken have used unique solution-focused methods in group treatment programs to do just that since 1990. They are coming to Duncan on Feb 12 and 13th 2008 to share their experiences with other domestic violence treatment providers, mental health professionals, child protection workers, parole and probation officers, family counsellors and support workers. The ORCAS Society is hosting this two-day session at the Travelodge Silver Bridge Inn at Duncan, BC, and they invite participation from professionals who are seeking solutions to domestic violence. Join us to learn how to work respectfully and effectively with voluntary and mandated clients; to overcome resistance and hostility; to elicit realistic and meaningful goals; to utilize small changes to develop larger changes; and to hold clients accountable for solutions, not problems.
