PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WITH DR. LINDA METCALF

Who are you hoping to help?

For more than 30 years I've taught one curious, hopeful way of talking with people. Where you start depends on who's sitting across from you.

For schools & districts

Students, teachers and families in my school

Counseling Toward Solutions workshop

I bring a six-hour workshop to your counselors, teachers and administrators, shaped around your school's best hopes. Your staff leave with questions they can use the next morning.

  • 6 hours, onsite or on Zoom
  • Planned with you in a call before the day
  • Certificate of Completion for every attendee
  • Booked year-round, for groups of 3 or more
Bring the workshop to your school

Used by schools from Livermore, California to Budapest

For therapists & counselors

Clients in my practice

Foundations of Solution Focused Narrative Therapy

A live online seminar in SFNT, the model I built by bringing solution-focused brief therapy and narrative therapy together, for the clients a problem-focused approach hasn't reached.

  • 3 hours, live online
  • 3 contact hours, recording included
  • Optional Part 2: bring your own cases
  • $129 for Part 1

Next session: To be announced

Built from 35 years of clinical practice and my book with Springer

Many school counselors also see clients in private practice. If that's you, both doors are open, and I wonder what you'd notice using the same questions in both rooms.

SEE IT IN ACTION

One question, two rooms

Watch me ask the same question to a student who's been sent to the office, and to an adult client who feels stuck. Ninety seconds, and you'll see why it travels.
