Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT)

Overview:

Solution-Focused Therapy is a practical and empowering approach that emphasizes creating positive change by focusing on your goals, strengths, and future possibilities. Unlike therapies that delve deeply into past issues, SFBT is oriented toward the present and future, guiding you to envision what a fulfilling life looks like and helping you take steps toward that vision. This approach is rooted in the belief that you already possess the abilities needed to overcome challenges and that therapy can help you harness those strengths to move forward. The core principles of Solution-Focused Therapy include goal orientation, strengths-based focus, collaboration, and practical action. Goal orientation means clarifying what success looks like for you and establishing realistic objectives that provide a sense of direction. A strengths-based focus highlights your inherent abilities and past successes, helping you build confidence in your capacity for change. Collaboration emphasizes the therapist-client partnership, where you are seen as the expert in your own life, working together to co-create strategies that align with your values. Finally, practical action involves taking small, achievable steps that bring about early, tangible progress, reinforcing your resilience and setting the foundation for lasting change. By focusing on what’s possible and practical, SFBT aims to help you lead a life aligned with your goals and aspirations.
