Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT

SFBT is a goal-oriented and collaborative therapeutic approach that focuses on identifying and amplifying a client’s existing strengths and resources to create positive change. Rather than dwelling on past problems or analyzing their origins, SFBT centers on exploring the client’s desired future outcomes and finding practical solutions to achieve those goals. The therapy involves engaging the client in a constructive and empowering conversation, where the therapist asks specific questions to elicit the client’s preferred future, identify exceptions to the problem, and highlight their strengths and past successes. SFBT is a time-limited approach that emphasizes the client’s active participation and self-determination. By focusing on solutions and building on existing strengths, SFBT offers a positive and forward-thinking approach to therapy that can lead to effective and sustainable change.
