What is Solution-Focused Brief Therapy?


Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a goal-oriented, strengths-based approach that helps individuals identify and leverage their resources to overcome challenges and achieve their desired outcomes. By focusing on solutions rather than problems, SFBT empowers you to envision a preferred future and take concrete steps toward making it a reality. Through a collaborative, conversation-based process, you'll discover your own path to rapid, lasting change.

☑️ Identify and build upon your strengths and resources

☑️ Discover exceptions to problems and replicate successful strategies

☑️ Develop a concrete plan for achieving your goals

☑️ Maintain motivation and momentum toward success
