Solution Focused Therapy
Programs that specialize in providing task-oriented therapeutic interventions which focus on helping people resolve a particular problem in their lives as opposed to looking at the etiology of the problem, e.g., a personality disorder that may be an underlying causal factor. Therapy is generally relatively brief, focuses on practical suggestions for dealing with the issue and concludes when a strategy for approaching the problem has been agreed upon and the person's situation has been stabilized. Clients may return for a new series of brief therapy sessions on an as-needed basis if new problems surface.
