Solution Focused Brief Therapy in Powys, Mid Wales.

What is SFBT?

Solution Focused Brief Therapy is a talking therapy which involved a way of working from a problem to a solution without the need for the client or worker to need to ‘fix’ the problem, rather to explore in detail the clients preferred future without the problem by identifying the possible resources and strengths that the client has for attaining that future.

  • Explores with the client their possible preferred future
  • Explores with the client what is already happening or contributing to these futures.
  • They see the client as an expert in all aspects of their lives.

How brief is SFBT?

The therapy is considered as a brief intervention as in psychological therapies, work can take years to complete.

The work is done in SFBT when the client and the worker alike conclude that the preferred outcome has been reached, this is generally considered to be in less than six sessions.

Occasionally clients find it useful to return for the odd ‘top up’ session; sometimes this may be to address different issues.
