Solution-focused brief therapy

Last updated

Solution-focused (brief) therapy (SFBT) [1] [2] is a goal-directed collaborative approach to psychotherapeutic change that is conducted through direct observation of clients' responses to a series of precisely constructed questions. [3] Based upon social constructivist thinking and Wittgensteinian philosophy, [3] SFBT focuses on addressing what clients want to achieve without exploring the history and provenance of problem(s). [4] SF therapy sessions typically focus on the present and future, focusing on the past only to the degree necessary for communicating empathy and accurate understanding of the client's concerns. [5] [6]

SFBT is a future-oriented and goal-oriented [3] [7] interviewing technique [8] that helps clients "build solutions." Elliott Connie defines solution building as "a collaborative language process between the client(s) and the therapist that develops a detailed description of the client(s)' preferred future/goals and identifies exceptions and past successes". [9] By doing so, SFBT focuses on clients' strengths and resilience. [7]

General introduction

The solution-focused brief therapy approach grew from the work of American social workers Steve de Shazer, Insoo Kim Berg, and their team at the Milwaukee Brief Family Therapy Center (BFTC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. A private training and therapy institute, BFTC was started by dissatisfied former staff members from a Milwaukee agency who were interested in exploring brief therapy approaches then being developed at the Mental Research Institute (MRI) in Palo Alto, California. The initial group included married partners, Steve de Shazer and Insoo Berg, and Jim Derks, Elam Nunnally, Judith Tietyen, Don Norman, [10] Marilyn La Court and Eve Lipchik. Their students included John Walter, Jane Peller, Michele Weiner-Davis and Yvonne Dolan. Steve de Shazer and Berg, primary developers of the approach, co-authored an update of SFBT in 2007, [3] shortly before their deaths. SFBT evolved from the Brief Therapy that was practiced at MRI. [7]

The solution-focused approach was developed inductively rather than deductively; [7] Berg, de Shazer and their team [11] spent thousands of hours carefully observing live and recorded therapy sessions. Any behaviors or words on the part of the therapist that reliably led to positive therapeutic change on the part of the clients were painstakingly noted and incorporated into the SFBT approach. In most traditional psychotherapeutic approaches starting with Freud, practitioners assumed that it was necessary to make an extensive analysis of the history and cause of their clients' problems before attempting to develop any sort of solution. Solution-focused therapists see the therapeutic change process radically differently [12] and informed by the observations of de Shazer, [13] which recognize that although "causes of problems may be extremely complex, their solutions do not necessarily need to be". [7]

SFBT might be best defined by what it does not do [14] because SFBT presents an innovative and radically different approach from traditional psychotherapy. [14] [8] Traditional psychotherapy looks at how problems happen, manifest, and resolve. [15] [7] The problem-solving approach is influenced by the medical model, where the symptoms are assessed to diagnose and treat the malady. Outside of SFBT, the almost universal belief is that the clinician must define and understand the problem to help. To do this, the practitioner must develop some information about the nature of problems that they will help resolve and ask questions about the client's symptoms. [15] The more common problem-solving approach includes a description of the problem, an assessment of the problem, and plan and execute interventions to resolve or mitigate the impact of the problem. This is followed by an evaluation determining the success of the intervention and follow-up if necessary. [16]

SFBT posits that a therapist can help clients resolve their problems without identifying the details or source problem [8] and completely avoids exploring the details and context of the problem. [4] SFBT believes that an assessment of the problem is entirely unnecessary. [17] Focusing on the problem actually may serve to shift the client away from the solution. This is because SFBT fundamentally believes that the nature of the solution can be completely different from the problem. So instead, SFBT focuses on building solutions by conceptualizing a preferred future with clients. SFBT is all about finding alternatives to the problem, not identifying and eliminating the problem. [4]

SFBT is strengths-based [9] [18] and supports clients' self-determination. [12] Using the client's language, SFBT uses the client's perspective [12] and fosters cooperation. [19] The focus on the strengths and resources of clients is a factor in why some social workers choose SFBT. [20]

SFBT is designed to help people change their lives in the fastest way possible. [8] [21] By finding and amplifying exceptions, change is efficient and effective. [19] Treatment usually lasts less than six sessions, [22] [23] and it can work in about two sessions. [24] Its brevity and its flexibility have made SFBT the choice of intervention for many health care settings. Interventions in a medical setting many times need to be brief. [25] Agencies also choose SFBT because its efficiency translates into monetary savings. [20]

History

Solution-focused brief therapy is one of a family of approaches, known as systems therapies, that have been developed over the past 50 years or so, first in the US, and eventually evolving around the world, including Europe. The title SFBT, and the specific steps involved in its practice, are attributed to husband and wife Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg, two American social workers, and their team at the Brief Family Therapy Center (BFTC) in Milwaukee, US. Core members of this team were Jim Derks, Elam Nunnally, Marilyn LaCourt, and Eve Lipchik [26] as well as students Pat Bielke, Dave Pakenham, John Walter, Jane Peller, Elam Nunnally, Alex Molnar, and Michele Weiner-Davis. Wallace Gingerich and Gale Miller joined a few years later as research assistants. [27]

In the 1970s, de Shazer, Berg and colleagues conducted Brief Family Therapy at Family Service of Milwaukee, [10] a community agency, and installed one-way mirrors to observe sessions with clients to study which activities were most beneficial for the clients. [15] The group of therapists used to meet in the couple's home, where a therapist saw clients pro bono in the living room while the others observed, after which they would discuss their thoughts together in a bedroom. [10] In 1978, [26] when the administration disallowed the one-way mirrors, de Shazer and Berg put together a team of practitioners and students and founded the Brief Family Therapy Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to continue their work. The result was the eventual development of SFBT. [15] BFTC served as a research center to study, develop, and test techniques of psychotherapy to find those that are most efficient and effective with clients. Besides mental health professionals, the team included educators, sociologists, linguists, engineers and philosophers. [28] Steve de Shazer, the director of BFTC, referred to this group as a "therapeutic think tank". [29] Over time people began to request training, so BFTC became a research and training center. [29]

SFBT has its roots in brief family therapy, [30] a type of family therapy practiced at the Mental Research Institute (MRI). [31] In the 1970s, de Shazer, the primary creator of SFBT, studied the work done at MRI [32] and founded BFTC to serve as "the MRI of the Midwest". [28] John Weakland at MRI influenced him to develop simple techniques in brief goal-focused therapy, [29] and at MRI he was introduced to the work of Milton Erickson which ultimately had a significant influence on the development of SFBT. [32]

In 1982 there was the watershed moment where the founders of SFBT, Berg, de Shazer, and their team transformed their brief therapy practice to become solution-focused. A family came to be treated at the Milwaukee Brief Family Therapy. During the assessment, the family provided a list of 27 problems. The team was at a loss as to what to suggest the family try to do differently. They suggested that the family come back with a list of things they want to continue to happen. The effectiveness of this spontaneous intervention led to the understanding that the solution is not necessarily related to the problem. This was the beginning of solution-focused brief therapy. [15]

SFBT practice began to be popularized starting in the late 1980s [8] and experienced tremendous growth in its first 15–20 years. [20] [22] Their work in the early 1980s built on that of a number of other innovators, among them Milton Erickson and the group at the MRI [33] Gregory Bateson, Donald deAvila Jackson, Paul Watzlawick, John Weakland, Virginia Satir, Jay Haley, Richard Fisch, Janet Beavin Bavelas and others.[ citation needed ] SFBT gained tremendous popularity in the UK in the late 1990s and the 2000s. [34] At that time, it also spread worldwide to be a leading brief therapy, [3] with many agencies adopting SFBT as their only modality. [20] It is now one of the most popular psychotherapeutic modalities globally. [35] [7]

SFBT practice

In SFBT, practitioners employ conversational skills to facilitate a discussion focused on solutions, as opposed to dwelling on problems. [4] [36] The questions themselves serve as the intervention, directing clients toward a mindset that fosters positive change and reduces negative emotions. [37] [38] These questions help clients reinterpret their experiences, enabling them to recognize potential for change where they might not have seen it before. [36]

The primary tools of the solution-focused approach are questions and compliments. SFBT therapists refrain from making interpretations and rarely confront clients. [39] Instead, they concentrate on identifying clients' goals and developing a detailed description of life when the goal is reached, and the problem is either resolved or managed satisfactorily. [2] To devise effective solutions, they examine clients' life experiences for "exceptions," or moments when some aspect of their goal was already happening to some extent. [2]

SFBT therapists believe personal change is constant. [40] By helping clients identify positive directions for change and focusing on changes they wish to continue, SFBT therapists assist clients in constructing a concrete vision of a preferred future. [39]

One way to understand SFBT is through the acronym MECSTAT, which stands for Miracle questions, Exception questions, Coping questions, Scaling questions, Time-out, Accolades, and Task [39]. SFBT questions prompt clients to discuss their preferred future and describe what would be different when the problem is solved or managed. [4] [41] The "miracle question" is one such tool, asking clients to imagine that their problem was miraculously solved without their knowledge and to identify the first clues that would indicate the problem is resolved. [42]

Therapists also ask questions that focus on previous solutions or "exceptions" to the problem. [41] In SFBT, exceptions are times when the problem is less severe or better managed. [41] [43] Identifying exceptions helps build solutions by highlighting what is working in clients' lives. [4] [44] By discovering and amplifying minor exceptions to the problem, therapists encourage clients to do more of what already works. [41] [45] [46]

When seeking exceptions, the practitioner does not attempt to convince the client of their significance. Instead, the therapist adopts a genuinely curious stance and asks the client to explain the exception's importance. [47] Therapists must maintain a not-knowing stance, which can be challenging for emerging SFBT practitioners. [48] [49]

SFBT practitioners use tools such as starting sessions with the question "What's been better since we last talked?" to help clients identify exceptions. [50] Scaling questions are another tool, using a scale to measure clients' progress toward their goals. [41] [42] Clients are asked to provide details about times when the problem was less severe or absent and to identify behaviors that work for them. [4]

SFBT sessions are highly structured, following a specific format and employing formulated interviewing techniques. [39] However, adhering to the underlying philosophy of SFBT is considered more important than strictly following the techniques. [51] Central to SFBT is the belief that clients are the experts in their lives and possess the knowledge necessary to achieve their goals. [41] Therapists are considered experts in asking questions that evoke the change process. [52]

In authentic SFBT practice, resistance is rarely encountered. [53] [54] Maintaining a curious and not-knowing stance is vital for effective SFBT. [52] [55] Despite its apparent simplicity, SFBT is difficult to master. [7] [14] It requires disciplined practice, which can be challenging for many practitioners. [3] As a result, some may only use components of SFBT instead of adhering to pure SFBT, often due to the difficulty in transitioning from a problem-focused stance. [56] Conversely, new SFBT trainees may struggle with being overly optimistic and not genuinely validating clients' pain. [56] This may be because concentrating on newly learned SFBT skills and techniques takes focus away from being present with the client.

Authentic SFBT practice demands that therapists remain highly attuned to clients' verbal and non-verbal communication, adapting their questions to better understand and engage with the client's perspective. [57] By doing so, SFBT practitioners can effectively facilitate client movement toward their goals and preferred futures.

Evidence-based status

In the early days of the model, critics often said that SFBT does not have enough research. [20] In 2000 a review of SFBT research just showed preliminary evidence of the efficacy of SFBT. [22] However, in 2010 the SFBT research grew to a level where the evidence was promising, [58] [59] and today several meta-analyses show SFBT to be effective with internalizing issues. [18] [60] [61] [62] [63] [64] SFBT has a robust, broad, and growing evidence base and is recommended for use when deemed a good fit for the client and their problem. [65] [66]

SFBT has been examined in two meta-analyses and is supported as evidenced-based by numerous federal and state agencies and institutions, such as SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs & Practices (NREPP). [67] The conclusion of the two meta-analyses and the systematic reviews, and the overall conclusion of the most recent scholarly work on SFBT, is that solution-focused brief therapy is an effective approach to the treatment of psychological problems, with effect sizes similar to other evidenced-based approaches, such as CBT and IPT, but that these effects are found in fewer average sessions, and using an approach style that is more benign. [58] [61]

Applications

SFBT is very adaptable to many settings [50] because it helps the clients create custom-made interventions for themselves, [19] and the client is always considered to be the expert. [21] Even the practitioner's language is taken from the words the client uses to describe their life and preferred future. [68] The result is that SFBT provides interventions that are perfectly matched with the clients' way of understanding and acting. [12] Techniques such as the miracle question can be adapted to make them more culturally relevant and come across in ways more empathetic and supportive based on the culture and needs of the population being served. [69] [70]

SFBT works well with children and families [21] and can be applied to many family-related situations. [7] It is effective with adolescents, [71] [72] [73] [74] pregnant and postpartum women, [75] [76] couples, [77] [78] [79] [80] and parents. [81] SFBT was shown to be effective for families in the child welfare system, [65] with case management in social welfare programs, [82] financial counseling, [83] and with therapy groups. [84]

SFBT has been applied to many settings, including education and business settings [3] including coaching. [85] [86] [87] and counselling. [88] It is effective in schools [89] [90] [91] [73] [92] and with college students. [93] [94] It was successfully used with populations in jails, [95] inpatient addiction rehab centers, [96] inpatient psychiatric facilities, [97] and in a wide range of medical settings. [25] It has been helpful with treating family members of patients with serious illnesses. [98] [99] [100]

SFBT is effective with people in many countries and cultures, including people from Turkey, [94] [92] Chile, [101] Iran, [81] [102] and China. [18] A systematic review showed it to be effective with Latinos. [103]

SFBT works in treating people who experienced trauma. [104] [105] [21] [106] [107] It has been suggested to use with patients that are suicidal or in crisis, [108] [109] families coping with suicide, [19] and patients with eating disorders [110] substance use disorders, [103] [111] [112] and obesity. [113] It was also suggested as a promising intervention for individuals with a brain injury [114] and was helpful with those with intellectual disabilities. [34] It has even been documented to have been successfully used with a patient in a psychotic crisis. [17]

SFBT is effective in treating clients with depression. [115] [116] [117] [118] [119] [120] It has been shown to be effective in helping increase self-esteem, [121] hope, [107] [122] good behavior, and social competence [123] among adolescents [124] and children. [125] It has been suggested that SFBT's ability to engender hope is what makes it effective for patients suffering from depression [107] as the presence of hope is shown to have an inverse relationship with depression. [126] [127] [128] [129]

Workers with child protective services report in a qualitative study that SFBT training and supervision was helpful for them to work in a more cooperative and strength-based way and improved the overall mood and atmosphere of their encounters. [130] There are models designed for child protection services that incorporate aspects of SFBT [12] because SFBT alone is thought to be insufficient for child protective services because a more authoritative approach is necessary. [131]

Hypnotherapy, also known as hypnotic medicine, is the use of hypnosis in psychotherapy. The efficacy of hypnotherapy is not well supported by scientific evidence, and, due to the lack of evidence indicating any level of efficacy, it is regarded as a type of alternative medicine by reputable medical organisations such as the National Health Service.

Psychotherapy is the use of psychological methods, particularly when based on regular personal interaction, to help a person change behavior, increase happiness, and overcome problems. Psychotherapy aims to improve an individual's well-being and mental health, to resolve or mitigate troublesome behaviors, beliefs, compulsions, thoughts, or emotions, and to improve relationships and social skills. Numerous types of psychotherapy have been designed either for individual adults, families, or children and adolescents. Certain types of psychotherapy are considered evidence-based for treating some diagnosed mental disorders; other types have been criticized as pseudoscience.

Clinical psychology is an integration of human science, behavioral science, theory, and clinical knowledge for the purpose of understanding, preventing, and relieving psychologically-based distress or dysfunction and to promote subjective well-being and personal development. Central to its practice are psychological assessment, clinical formulation, and psychotherapy, although clinical psychologists also engage in research, teaching, consultation, forensic testimony, and program development and administration. In many countries, clinical psychology is a regulated mental health profession.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Narrative therapy</span> Form of psychotherapy

Narrative therapy is a form of psychotherapy that seeks to help patients identify their values and the skills associated with them. It provides the patient with knowledge of their ability to live these values so they can effectively confront current and future problems. The therapist seeks to help the patient co-author a new narrative about themselves by investigating the history of those values. Narrative therapy is a social justice approach to therapeutic conversations, seeking to challenge dominant discourses that shape people's lives in destructive ways. While narrative work is typically located within the field of family therapy, many authors and practitioners report using these ideas and practices in community work, schools and higher education. Narrative therapy has come to be associated with collaborative as well as person-centered therapy.

Online counseling is a form of professional mental health counseling that is generally performed through the internet. Computer aided technologies are used by the trained professional counselors and individuals seeking counseling services to communicate rather than conventional face-to-face interactions. Online counseling is also referred to as teletherapy, e-therapy, cyber therapy, or web counseling. Services are typically offered via email, real-time chat, and video conferencing. Some clients use online counseling in conjunction with traditional psychotherapy, or nutritional counseling. An increasing number of clients are using online counseling as a replacement for office visits.

Motivational interviewing (MI) is a counseling approach developed in part by clinical psychologists William R. Miller and Stephen Rollnick. It is a directive, client-centered counseling style for eliciting behavior change by helping clients to explore and resolve ambivalence. Compared with non-directive counseling, it is more focused and goal-directed, and departs from traditional Rogerian client-centered therapy through this use of direction, in which therapists attempt to influence clients to consider making changes, rather than engaging in non-directive therapeutic exploration. The examination and resolution of ambivalence is a central purpose, and the counselor is intentionally directive in pursuing this goal. MI is most centrally defined not by technique but by its spirit as a facilitative style for interpersonal relationship.

Brief psychotherapy is an umbrella term for a variety of approaches to short-term, solution-oriented psychotherapy.

Supervision is used in counselling, psychotherapy, and other mental health disciplines as well as many other professions engaged in working with people. Supervision may be applied as well to practitioners in somatic disciplines for their preparatory work for patients as well as collateral with patients. Supervision is a replacement instead of formal retrospective inspection, delivering evidence about the skills of the supervised practitioners.

Child psychotherapy, or mental health interventions for children refers to the psychological treatment of various mental disorders diagnosed in children and adolescents. The therapeutic techniques developed for younger age ranges specialize in prioritizing the relationship between the child and the therapist. The goal of maintaining positive therapist-client relationships is typically achieved using therapeutic conversations and can take place with the client alone, or through engagement with family members.

Leslie Samuel Greenberg is a Canadian psychologist born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and is one of the originators and primary developers of Emotion-Focused Therapy for individuals and couples.

His research has addressed questions regarding empathy, psychotherapy process, the therapeutic alliance, and emotion in human functioning.

Emotionally focused therapy and emotion-focused therapy (EFT) are a set of related approaches to psychotherapy with individuals, couples, or families. EFT approaches include elements of experiential therapy, systemic therapy, and attachment theory. EFT is usually a short-term treatment. EFT approaches are based on the premise that human emotions are connected to human needs, and therefore emotions have an innately adaptive potential that, if activated and worked through, can help people change problematic emotional states and interpersonal relationships. Emotion-focused therapy for individuals was originally known as process-experiential therapy, and it is still sometimes called by that name.

Common factors theory, a theory guiding some research in clinical psychology and counseling psychology, proposes that different approaches and evidence-based practices in psychotherapy and counseling share common factors that account for much of the effectiveness of a psychological treatment. This is in contrast to the view that the effectiveness of psychotherapy and counseling is best explained by specific or unique factors that are suited to treatment of particular problems.
