Solution focused brief therapy

Solution focused brief therapy or solution focused brief counseling (SFBC) is a kind of talking therapy that focuses on solutions to a client's problems rather than on causes of the problems or emotional responses to the problems. The approach does not focus on the past, but rather the present and even the future. The therapist/counselor uses respectful curiosity to invite the client to envision their preferred future and then therapist and client start working towards it in small incremental steps. To support this, questions are asked about the client?s story, strengths and resources, and about exceptions to the problem. Scaling is also used as a tool to measure progress.
