Solution Focused Brief Therapy

Working with client on coming up with solutions.

It's hard to see clear when we strong emotions but there is always a solution and always a path. Think of me as your knowledgable and objective teammate. Together we will figure out how to get you for where you are to where you want to be.

We developed an intensive four weeks long individual therapeutic program for FTs and HCWs to help manage wellness, rebuild resilience, and take back control by learning to identify and manage triggers in a constructive manner.

Solution focused brief therapy is a goal-directed, future-oriented, collaborative therapeutic approach to help clients focus on solutions rather than the problems. I specialize in solution focused brief therapy to incorporate my client's strengths into the therapeutic process and empower them to make tangible, positive changes in their lives.

Solution-focused therapy uses targeted strategies to help you reach your goals (not the therapists) by identifying and utilizing your own ideas and abilities. I have advanced training with these strategies.

Just as this sounds, we are working together to come to a solution that address your need.

I'm a big believer in Solution-Focused Therapy. It’s all about focusing on your strengths and building on them. Instead of getting tangled up in the problem, we explore your desired future and work towards creating it. This approach places you, the client, as the expert of your own life. I'm here to help illuminate the path, encouraging you to harness your own resources to devise effective solutions. Let’s start finding those small steps that lead to big changes together.

It is very important to work towards a solution so we have goals to focus on. It is important my clients continue to do work outside of therapy to help themselves.

With Solution-Focused Therapy, my clients and I work collaboratively to develop solutions to their problems and goals that they will like to achieve in the future. My clients appreciate the directness and focus in creating tangible solutions to their problems.

I believe in utilizing solution-focused techniques to guide you in identifying ways to move forward through life’s challenges. Amongst other techniques, it is helpful to identify what is happening in the present and what solutions may help you move forward in a healthy and productive way.

I utilize Solution Focused Therapy which, at its core, means you, the client, are the expert of your life and deep down, know exactly what you need in order to reach your most authentic self. It is an approach designed to help you, the client to uncover strengths and abilities that have been there all this time. Equipping you with the ability to focus on what can change instead of what can't be changed, in order to live the life you desire.

Therapy doesn't have to last forever. Sometimes you need a get in/get out approach. I have a few sayings that my clients love, but that I won't share here. My potty mouth knows no bounds. But trust when I say that sometimes simple is better.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a short-term goal-focused evidence-based therapeutic approach, which incorporates positive psychology principles and practices, and which helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems.

A common complaint about therapy is its seemingly never ending emphasis on all that we are doing wrong. Enter Solution Focused Brief Therapy: an approach that focuses on all that you are doing right. SFBT helps patients identify and strengthen effective ways they are already coping, instead of trying to "fix" what is "wrong" about their lives. I have found this treatment orientation incredibly effective in my practice, and was lucky enough to train with a leading SFBT expert in the field.

Therapy is often for a reason, season, or lifetime. If you fall within the reason or season, SFBT might be for you. By developing clear goals and the tools necessary to achieve them you will tackle challenges and move into achievement.

I have training and expertise in this approach, blended with other evidence-based brief therapy approaches, that allows us to Gert right to there heart of the issue and make significant progress in a short period of time.
