Solution Focused Therapy in Calgary

Solution Focused Therapy Calgary

All of our Calgary Psychologist Clinic’s therapists are experienced in using Solution Focused Therapy to help clients achieve their therapeutic goals. Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) are therapeutic approaches that focus on finding solutions rather than dwelling on problems. SFT is a form of psychotherapy that aims to help individuals identify their strengths, resources, and goals to create positive change in their lives. It is based on the belief that individuals already possess the necessary skills and knowledge to overcome their challenges.

SFT emphasizes collaboration between the therapist and the client, with the therapist taking a non-directive and supportive role. The therapy sessions typically begin by identifying the client’s desired outcome or goal. The therapist then helps the client explore exceptions to their current problems or situations when things have gone well. By focusing on these exceptions, clients gain insight into their own abilities and resources.

SFT emphasizes small, incremental changes rather than grand transformations. It operates under the assumption that even small steps towards the desired outcome can create a positive ripple effect in other areas of a person’s life. The therapist assists the client in setting achievable goals and identifying practical steps to work towards them.

SFT also utilizes scaling techniques, where the client rates their current situation or progress on a scale. This helps to create awareness of progress and build motivation. The therapy sessions are typically brief, as SFT aims to help clients achieve their goals efficiently and effectively.

SFBT is a specific application of SFT that focuses on brief interventions. It aims to address immediate concerns and create change within a short period. SFBT is often used in situations where time is limited or the client wants to focus on a specific issue.

SFBT therapists adopt a direct and goal-oriented approach. They assist clients in defining their goals clearly and developing a detailed vision of their preferred future. The therapist helps clients explore past successes and strengths to identify strategies that can be applied to the current challenge. The emphasis is on finding practical solutions and taking action steps.

Both SFT and SFBT have been found effective in a wide range of contexts, including individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy. These approaches focus on empowering clients and encouraging them to take an active role in their own growth and change process. By emphasizing strengths, resources, and solutions, these therapies offer a refreshing alternative to problem-focused approaches.
