Has finding a therapist been on your to-do list for days, weeks, months or years? Do you feel exhausted or overwhelmed by the idea of making an appointment? If so, I imagine you are sick and tired of the narrative that you are just not motivated enough to change. The one thing you are sure of is your desire to feel better, even if what that looks like is still unclear. Maybe you want to test drive different coping strategies and need a co-pilot to feel safe enough to jump in the drivers seat - or maybe you want someone to listen while you sit in park and express what it's like to feel stuck and misunderstood.

Today's world offers many challenges for individuals, families, and couples a like. Just like adults, teens can be under extreme stress, which takes its toll on their mental and emotional well-being. The stress can come from, the pressure to perform well in school/sports/activities, family, or from their own friendship/dating relationships. I also work with adults suffering from similar issues, as well as, stress due to family/relationship conflicts, job/career, etc. When I work with couples, they learn how to communicate more effectively with each other through practice with me and without me.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists
How does solution-focused therapy work?
The treatment works by helping a client notice which behaviors and thoughts have positive results on their lives and building a plan around how to maximise these strengths. Practitioners of solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) believe that individuals already have the experience, wisdom, and resilience to create change in their lives, but may need a guide to help them realise which changes to make and how to make them.
Is solution-focused brief therapy evidence-based?
Yes. Solution-focused brief therapy has been extensively studied, and researchers find strong evidence that it’s an effective treatment for many behavioral and psychological concerns. This may be due to the uplifting nature and practicality of the treatment, which allows patients to employ strategies to reach their goals that are incremental and achievable.
How long does solution-focused brief therapy last?
Solution-focused brief therapy, as the name implies, is brief. The timeline may vary from person to person, given the challenges they face and their situation in life, but treatment is typically complete within four to eight sessions. This therapy type is a pragmatic one: it’s concerned more with “how” problems can be addressed and improved than getting to the root of “why” they exist in the first place.
Is solution-focused brief therapy a type of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Solution-focused brief therapy is related to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)in that both are pragmatic approaches that deal less with gaining a full understanding of the cause of a mental health problem and more with creating plans for how to cope with these problems and improve an individual’s day-to-day life. They are distinct, however, in that SFBT emphasises building on strengths and resources, while CBT focuses on changing negative thoughts and behaviors.
