Solution-Focused Therap

What Is Solution-Focused Therapy?

Solution-focused therapy (SFT) is an action-oriented mental health therapy whose purpose is to empower the patient to come up with unique solutions to their problems by utilizing their past successes and strengths. This therapy modality is also known as strengths-based therapy or brief therapy – instead of dwelling on negative thoughts, painful experiences, and issues you have no control over, you get to leverage existing resources to make a real difference.

A solution-focused approach to therapy is a smart choice on its own but it can be combined with other Therapy Options depending on the needs of the patient – for instance, an individual can also reframe their negative feelings in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) or explore their unspoken fears and insecurities in trauma therapy.

Techniques

Solution-Focused Therapy Techniques

Every patient needs an individual approach which is why the techniques therapists utilize in solution-focused counseling sessions are always different:

Dual Diagnosis icon: two heads facing each other, symbolizing mental health and substance abuse comorbidity, internal page

Open-Ended Questions

With the assistance of questions, a therapist will shift your focus from problems to solutions. You can figure out what keeps you going when things get tough and what would happen to you if your issues miraculously disappeared.

Mind Mapping

You can visually organize your ideas, thoughts, and goals into a visual map – see the big picture, find new solutions, and come up with new boundaries and limits for yourself and others.

Small-Scale Changes

A therapist will ask you to make minor adjustments to your life which often leads to significant cumulative results in the long run whether you are reaching out to your friends more or reducing caffeine consumption.

Our Approach

Our Approach to Solution-Focused Therapy

At Reset Behavioral Health, we deliver results-driven treatment, and this is particularly relevant for solution-focused therapy. Our goal is to make sure the patient does not waste their time dwelling on their issues – instead, their concerns are validated, and they get to collaborate with the therapist as goal-oriented therapy is integrated with overall care to leave no stone unturned.
You can get access to SFT therapy regardless of the intensity of treatment – it can be quite effective both in an outpatient setting and as a component of a Residential Treatment program. Moreover, the solutions you develop with a therapist will impact your future as you benefit from Aftercare strategies once regular therapy is no longer required.

Who Is Solution-Focused Therapy For?

Solution-focused treatment works for anyone who seeks a practical and future-oriented change. You can quickly build solutions based on the existing resources and strengths, resolve interpersonal conflicts and improve dynamics that bother you, and overcome behavioral issues that prevent you from fully embracing your social life and succeeding professionally.
This therapeutic approach can guide you toward a fuller, freer life especially when you are diagnosed with more than one mental health condition at the same time. See a full list of disorders we can target simultaneously with strengths-based therapy on our What We Treat page.

How Long Does Solution-Focused Therapy Take?

The duration of mental health treatment can be hard to predict – the longevity and severity of the patient’s condition are at play here, and it can be difficult to tell how well a specific individual resonates with the method of treatment selected for them. Nevertheless, short-term therapy for mental health implies that it is not going to last long – usually, patients do not spend more than two or three months in therapy especially if they opt for a residential treatment program.
