Narrative Therapy: Its Application in Individual and Family Counseling

Training overview:

Narrative therapy empowers individuals and families to reclaim their stories by challenging oppressive narratives that contribute to distress. By externalizing problems and fostering empowerment, this approach promotes healing and equity.

This six-module mini-course provides a comprehensive introduction to narrative therapy techniques and their applications in individual and family counseling. Participants will engage in a combination of online learning and six live Zoom sessions, totaling 30 hours of participation, including 18 hours of synchronous, face-to-face class time.

Online learning will take place on Canvas, and participants will need to create a free account to access course materials and complete assignments. Open to master’s-level counseling students and mental health practitioners, this course is designed for those looking to deepen their understanding of narrative therapy and its role in promoting social justice in counseling.

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.

Venue: Full Gospel Assembly
Time: 24th May (Saturday) 2025
Fee: RM150 per pax

*Lunch will not be included

*Registration closing date: 17 MAY 2025

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.
