SFBT worksheets and resources

solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT)

SFBT explores what the client would like to be different and what signs would show that difference in everyday life. Attention turns to exceptions, when the difficulty is less present, and to strengths or resources already available. These details provide a starting point for discussing small next steps that the client considers realistic and worthwhile.
