abstract="A brief history on Solution-Focused Brief Therapy is given, followed by pragmatic assumptions, offering a new 'lens' for looking at clients. SFBT originated from social constructionism: reality is subjective and there are many realities, all equally correct. Outcome studies indicate that SFBT has a positive effect in less time and satisfies the client's need for autonomy. Indications and differences between problem-focused psychotherapy and SFBT are outlined. SFBT can be seen as a form of cognitive behavior therapy. Instead of reducing problems, the solution-focused question is: 'What would you rather have instead?' A lot could change for the better for both clients and therapists. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
