This course goes beyond mere skills practice, but aims at familiarizing students with the philosophy, process and practice of SFBT in a number of therapeutic contexts. Case examples will be used and practice experience will be shared extensively during this module. Emphasis is put on the student’s reflective practice and development of practice wisdom. Students’ learning will be realized through discussion, readings, case studies, skills practice and related assignments. Students are expected to prepare adequately before class and to participate actively in class. Reflection on current practice models is encouraged. |
