Have you ever worked with a client and felt that you have tried EVERYTHING? You've emptied out your toolbox, and nothing seems to work? If you have practiced social work for any length of time, or plan to do so in the future, this is a common story.
In order to be better prepared for situations like this, Social Work Mentor has created a website and Android app to help future, new, and seasoned Social Workers in the office, in the field, and beyond. The tool provides practical, tangible, and easily accessible mentoring and guidance for Social Workers and other helping professionals. These tools can help you address situations like the ones we pointed out above, and many more!
This course provides guidance on how to use one section of the website/app, "Solution Focused Approaches" It is absolutely not necessary to use the website/app to find value in this course, as the concepts are stand alone.
