Practical, Human-Centered & International.
Solutions Centre brings Solution-Focused ideas to life—in conversations, classrooms, clinics, teams, and communities around the world.
Founded by Insoo Kim Berg and Arnoud Huibers, we work across mental health, healthcare, education, leadership, and beyond. We help professionals turn Solution-Focused thinking into everyday practice—with practical skills, fresh perspectives, and conversations that open up new possibilities.
A Practical Approach to Communication & Development.
Solution-Focused Practice begins with something simple: listening carefully, noticing what is already working, and becoming curious about what someone would like to see instead.
We believe good conversations can make a real difference.
In our training, participants experience the approach rather than learn about it. Through live demonstrations, practice, reflection, and conversation, they discover useful questions, build on skills they already have, and explore small changes they can put into practice straight away.
Learning is active, practical, and human—with room for curiosity, laughter, surprise, and new possibilities.
Inspired by Solution-Focused Practice.
Our work is inspired by the pioneering ideas of Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg—and by their belief that people already bring strengths, resources, and possibilities to the conversation.
Solution-Focused Practice invites us to listen for what is working, notice progress, and explore what might be possible next.
Sometimes a different question, a small shift in attention, or one useful conversation is enough to get things moving.
That simple, respectful, and practical spirit is at the heart of everything we do.
Training Programs & Masterclasses.
Learning becomes powerful when ideas become useful.
Our international training programs and masterclasses bring professionals together to explore Solution-Focused Practice, share experiences, and discover new ways of working.
Through live demonstrations, real cases, hands-on practice, and lively conversation, participants explore what works for them—and what they might do differently the very next day.
Practical, interactive, and firmly rooted in everyday professional life — with plenty of room to experiment, discover, and learn from one another.
Methods & Practical Tools.
Good ideas become powerful when you can put them into practice.
At Solutions Centre, we turn Solution-Focused ideas into practical tools for everyday professional life—helping people create better conversations, strengthen collaboration, and open up new possibilities for change.
Our methods and tools include:
These approaches are practical, accessible, and designed to be used right away—in real conversations, with real people, in everyday professional practice—with guidance from experienced, highly skilled trainers.
International Projects & Collaboration.
Good ideas travel—and often become better when we share them.
Solutions Centre collaborates with professionals, universities, and organizations worldwide, exploring how Solution-Focused Practice can take shape in different settings, professions, and cultures.
These collaborations bring people and perspectives together—sparking new ideas, shared learning, research, and projects that continue to develop across borders.
And sometimes, something much bigger begins with one simple conversation.
Learning Across Borders.
A question that works beautifully in Amsterdam may sound quite different in Bangalore, Helsinki, or Toronto.
That is what makes international learning so interesting.
In our trainings and masterclasses, professionals from different countries and backgrounds explore Solution-Focused Practice together. They compare experiences, challenge assumptions, try things out, and discover how culture and context can change the way a conversation unfolds.
For us, learning across borders is not about doing things the same way everywhere. It is about staying curious—and seeing your own practice with fresh eyes.
Experienced Trainers & Professionals.
Good training is about more than knowing your subject. It is about knowing how to bring it to life.
Our trainers bring years of professional experience into the room—as psychologists, therapists, coaches, consultants, educators, and leaders.
They don’t just talk about Solution-Focused Practice. They demonstrate it, invite questions, share experiences from their own work, and create opportunities for participants to practice, experiment, reflect, and discover what works for them.
Our trainers are experienced, engaged, and genuinely curious—about people, their possibilities, and what might happen next.
Located in Soesterberg.
Sometimes the right environment makes all the difference.

Our training location combines the tranquility of its natural surroundings with easy accessibility. It is conveniently accessible by car and public transportation, with free parking available on site.
A place to step away from everyday routines—and make room for new ideas.
