    1. Using Solution Focused Brief Therapy In School & Private Practice Settings Liz Byrne, M.Ed., LPC Retired School Counselor Private Practitioner Compass Point Counseling Daphne, AL Assisted by Wanda Taylor, LPC Joyce Woodburn, LPC Baldwin County, AL

    3. Focusing on the Problem. . . . . . is like Digging a hole! The more you talk about it, the bigger it gets! The bigger the problem becomes, the harder it is to dig your way out!

    4. Brief History of SFBT Steve de Shazer & Insoo Kim Berg Research & Training Brief Family Therapy Group, Milwaukee (1978) Exceptions to problems (1980s) Miracle Question & Scaling Question developed (1984) In 2007, rights of the BFTC were given to the National Solution Focused Brief Therapy Association www.sfbta.org

    5. Solution Focused Brief Therapy Overview Over 20 years of theoretical development, clinical practice, and empirical research. Competency-based model Minimizes emphasis on past failings & problems Focuses on clients strengths & previous successes.

    6. Solution Focused Rationale Based on SOLUTION BUILDING rather than problem solving. Therapeutic focus on clients desired FUTURE not past. There are EXCEPTIONS, when the problem doesnt exist.

    7. SFBT Rationale, cont SOLUTIONS already EXIST for the client Small increments of CHANGE lead to large increments of change The counselors skills invite the client to BUILD THEIR OWN SOLUTIONS not diagnosis and treat problems.

    8. Using Solution Focused Brief Therapy Techniques: Role Play Community Setting Client: Wanda 40 year old, married, white female school counselor Presenting problem: Beginning to drink alone in the evenings, and is concerned due to it getting out of hand. School setting Student: Joyce 8th grade white female 13 years old Presenting problem: Math teacher kicked her out of class for the third time this semester.

    9. Using SFBT: Step 1 How to Begin Traditional question: What PROBLEM brought you here today? Yadda, yadda, yadda SFBT question: How can I help you today?

    10. Using SFBT: Step 2 Exceptions to the Problem The problem does not happen all the time Inquire about times when the same problem was worse or not present (Ex. Tell me about a time when this wasnt a problem for you or was worse?) Praise the student/client for what they did differently when the problem was not present

    11. Using SFBT: Step 3 Miracle Question/Goal setting Suppose a miracle happens tonight while you are asleep and when you wake up, the problem that brought you here was solved. How would you know the miracle happened since it happened when you were sleeping? What would be different when you woke up?

    12. Using SFBT: Step 4 Scaling Question/Client assessment On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the problem at its worst, and 10 being when you wont have this problem, like after the miracle, where are you RIGHT NOW? What would have to be different for you to be one or two steps higher on the scale?

    13. Step 4, cont Scaling Question If you moved higher on the scale, would anyone else notice? If so, what would they notice? What would be different? What could you do differently between now and tomorrow for you to rate yourself higher on the scale?

    14. Using SFBT: Step 5 Client Generated Homework Give client, RIGHT THEN, ON THE SPOT, a pen and paper to write down a to-do list Clients TO-DO LIST will consist of what THEY said needed to be done to move up the scale to reach THEIR miracle!
