DeltaSpace

My name is Farid Jaaffar.

I provide growth-focused coaching, facilitation sessions
and training workshops for professionals.

My Approach

I am a growth-focused coach, social worker and learning facilitator with close to two decade’s worth of clinical, supervisory and leadership experience in Singapore’s social service sector.

I believe that every individual has the ability to harness Change, using it as a powerful catalyst to achieve personal growth.

I use my own framework for professional coaching, which emphasises three key Processes - Expand the Mind, Commit to Change and Reflect on the Journey.

This framework is rooted in Motivational Interviewing, systemic perspectives, family therapy and life coaching techniques.

Coaching Services

I provide various coaching and supervision services for individuals and professionals from various industries.
Sessions are typically conducted online, last for 60-75 minutes and are priced at affordable rates.

  • This is a skills-based approach to supervision which emphasises clinical strategies used during client conversations.

    Supervisees will practise clinical techniques during real-plays and role plays, to help them better prepare for sessions with clients.

  • This supervision platform focuses on formulating case assessments and conceptualising case interventions using a systemic approach to casework.

    I guide practitioners to craft effective helping approaches and help them to process their own values and beliefs about their cases.

  • This supervision platform is tailored for practitioners who have been recently promoted to a leadership position.

    The emphasis of this supervision platform is discussing about supervisees’ struggles and aspirations in their new leadership roles.

  • Also known as meta-supervision, this supervision platform is for practitioners who are supervising colleagues, interns or newly onboarded staff.

    Practitioners will receive feedback about how their supervision styles interact with their supervisees’ learning needs.

  • While many practitioners receive clinical supervision for casework and counselling, fewer get the chance to be clinically supervised in their group work facilitation.

    This niche form of supervision is based on my own STRATE6IES facilitation method. Within this framework, I impart skills on how to effectively and efficiently facilitate group work sessions.

For Social Service Professionals

  • Coaching can be highly beneficial for individuals in various aspects of their personal and professional lives.

    Coaching can help to develop self-awareness, establish new skills and clarify life goals (among other things).

  • Tapping on a decade’s worth of experience in working with couples and families, systemic-level interventions are utilised to help individuals work through challenges in various kinds of relationships.

  • Pre-marriage coaching is designed to enrich your relationship, equipping you with skills and insights needed to build a resilient and fulfilling partnership with your future spouse.

    This coaching experience delves into the intricacies of communication, conflict resolution, shared goals, and individual growth.

  • Pre-parenting coaching is a specialised form of coaching that focuses on preparing couples for the journey of becoming parents.

    It involves providing guidance, support, and practical strategies to help prospective parents navigate the physical, emotional, and lifestyle changes associated with parenthood.

Services for Organisations

Immerse yourself in DeltaSpace’s experiential training and supervision platforms. Engage in hands-on activities, real-play simulations, and collaborative discourse, gaining practical skills that stay with you long after the learning session ends.

Learn the fundamentals of Motivational Interviewing (MI), infused with systemic perspectives of helping and guiding others.

MI is a collaborative conversational approach focused on evoking clients’ intrinsic motivation for change. This approach is used by various professionals in the social services and healthcare industries, helping practitioners journey with clients as they grapple with Change.

Systemic-MI suggests that in order for Change to be effective and long-lasting, it must happen not just within clients, but also in the interpersonal, social and macro-systems that they reside in.

STRATE6IES is a goal-oriented facilitation framework for group conversations. Acquire a toolkit of facilitation techniques which support four different Facilitation Goals in group conversation.

This training workshop is suitable for:

  • Social workers facilitating supportive or psycho-educational group work programmes

  • Therapists and counsellors facilitating group therapy

  • Managers and team leaders conducting strategy, culture or update meetings

Experience clinical supervision in a group setting with your peers.

Social work group supervision is a structured and collaborative process designed to support the professional development and well-being of social workers.

In group supervision, social workers come together under the guidance of a supervisor to reflect on their practice, share experiences, and learn from each other.

Supervisees are engaged via different learning strategies such as skills practice, case discussions and theory deep-dives.
