Solution focused therapy is brief therapy that  focuses on what clients want to achieve through therapy rather than on the problem(s) that motivated them seek help.   You will learn how to identify elements of your personally desired solution.   You will learn to build on these elements, and form the basis for positive change.  Rather than searching for the causes of the problem, you will learn how to define positive changes and systematically implement them to achieve happiness and harmony in your life.

A therapist using solution focused therapy techniques is likely to do the following:

• Help you envision your future without today’s problems

• Assist you in constructing positive solutions rather than dwelling on problems

• Assist you in developing a set of specific, detailed goals.  These goals will be set in motion is a systematically manner that is easy to manage

• Encourage you to identify and do more of what is already working

• Guide you in identifying what doesn’t work and avoiding these behaviors

Therapy using solution focused therapy techniques tends to require fewer sessions than traditional psychotherapy.
