Solution-Focused Therapy
Solution-focused therapy, also known as solution-focused brief therapy, is a short-term, goal-oriented, evidence-based therapeutic approach that helps people overcome challenges and achieve positive change. Solution-focused therapy focuses on a person's present and future circumstances and helps them change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems.
Our team of skilled and experienced therapists uses solution-focused techniques rooted in focused psychology to enable our clients to identify their strengths and resources
What is Solution-Focused Therapy?
Solution-focused therapy is a goal-oriented and results-driven approach to therapy that focuses on solutions rather than problems. Unlike traditional therapy models that dwell on analysing the past and identifying problems, solution-focused therapy emphasises identifying and amplifying the strengths and resources of individuals to create solutions and achieve their desired outcomes.
It is a collaborative and client-centred approach that empowers individuals to take control of their lives and make positive changes in a relatively short period of time.
How Does Solution-Focused Therapy Work?
As the name suggests, solution-focused brief therapy is a short-term approach that is highly focused on creating practical solutions. Our experienced therapists work closely with clients to identify their unique strengths, skills, and resources, and to help them set clear and achievable goals. Through a series of targeted sessions, clients are encouraged to envision their desired future and develop a roadmap to get there. Our therapists use a variety of solution-focused techniques, such as scaling questions, miracle questions, and exception finding, to facilitate positive change and progress towards the client's goals.
