What is Solution-Focused Brief Therapy?
The basic premise of solution-focused therapy is to increase what is working and decrease what isn’t working. Therapy usually focuses on the present situation, and only uses information from your past when it bears on your present problem. One assumption in solution-focused therapy is that you bring a lot of personal strengths to coping in your life. The goal of solution-focused therapy is to increase and build on these strengths. The focus of therapy is on building workable solutions for the challenges you face.
