This is Session 1 of the "Empowering Pathways" series.
This training provides participants with tools and techniques to implement strength-based goal setting within behavioral health practices. By focusing on clients' inherent strengths, rather than deficits, this approach empowers individuals to set and achieve meaningful, personalized goals that foster resilience and recovery. Participants will learn how to collaborate effectively with clients to identify strengths, set achievable goals, and track progress. This training is ideal for behavioral health professionals seeking to enhance client outcomes through a positive, empowering framework.
