- In today's video, I unfold the key concepts of theories, models, methods, and approaches in the realm of social work. Drawing from my practical experiences as a social worker, I discuss how these foundational elements intertwine with real-life scenarios, aiding in both personal and community-centered interventions.
🔍 Topics Covered:
The Essence of Systems Theory: Grasping a holistic viewpoint that extends beyond an individual's behavior to consider the broader circumstances impacting them.
Task-Centered Practice: A model rooted in behavioral therapy, focusing on crafting actionable steps alongside individuals to tackle specific challenges.
Method Techniques: Engaging techniques like the 'miracle question' to encourage solution-oriented dialogue and reflection.
Strength-based and Solution-focused Approaches: Approaches that accentuate recognizing and building upon an individual's strengths and resources.
Real-life instances are shared to illustrate how these theories, models, methods, and approaches can be employed to address various challenges faced by individuals and communities. I also touch on the dynamism of social work practice in responding to societal changes and the evolution of knowledge.
📌 As we navigate through these core concepts, the objective is to equip social work practitioners and enthusiasts with a robust understanding that can be translated into effective practice.

Absolutely excellent. This video has already helped me in my first year undertaking a social works degree. I have to complete an assignment around a case study while incorporating social work theories and models and I didn’t know where to start. What you said is really useful. I think I will use quite a lot of your advice and blend in system theory and task and behavioural model approach , obviously referring to literature and using your advice on where to start. Thank you 🙏
Hi I am so pleased to hear it helped you. Thanks for the feedback 😃
Thoroughly enjoyed the video, good to reflect on this whilst im preparing for an interview and returning to Social Work
That's brilliant to hear ! :)
This has really helped me Kayleigh thank you so much. I am currently studying in year 2 for my social work degree and have an assignment on adults. I have found it difficult to get my head around method model approach and this is helped me to understand them alittle better. Thank you please keep making these videos 😊

Well explained and articulated thank you
I really enjoyed your video. I have only been qualified for around 18 months and trying to incorporate more theory into my practice. It would be great to know more about incorporating theory and models when writhing case note and assessments. Is this something you do? X
Hey so to be honest I didn't until I came into this current role I'm in now and my manager asked me to. So I can discuss how I do this in my assessment now. I think this is a really good idea for a video. 👍😃

Amazing thanks ! 😁
I don't quite understand how social workers use theories in some cases. Like do they just compare their client case in a theory and then find some interventions?
I think most practitioners tend to use accessible resources like Siobhan Maclean's theory cards to get an idea of key points of a particular theory or intervention and then look wider for information from other sources as required. Once you have a grasp of some of the key ideas of a theory you start to see the connections in people's real life situations. For example, grief and loss. 👍
So... does any social work theory have anything to say on the extraordinary lack of men choosing to engage in the profession of social work over the past several decades?
Do you have a transcript?

Making what happens
Hi I have just qualified as a social worker and currently looking for jobs but struggling as a local authority was too much for me. Any advice
Sorry to hear you've had a difficult time in a local authority. I think it's a really tough time to be a social worker at the current moment, however I would say that experiences can drastically vary depending on multiple factors and I wouldn't right yourself off working in an LA because you may find somewhere you feel able to work well in. There are roles for social workers in the voluntary sector as well x
