Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is an evidence-based approach that is effective with anxiety, depression, relationship problems, trauma, communication problems, social anxiety, substance abuse and many other concerns that bring folks into therapy. Combined with Narrative therapy, which helps to develop new perspectives on problems, this theoretically integrated approach can help to explore your preferred outcomes and  help you in the change process by creating small, manageable steps to get to you where you want to be next.  To read more about Solution-Focused Therapy, click here.

Talk is not just talk- our words and language define our perspective, delineate what we can see or not yet see. How we think and talk about something determines the range of  possibilities and which solutions we can envision to problems. 

Narrative therapists often say, “The person is not the problem, the problem is the problem.” This is a powerful, yet simple statement. It means we can talk about a problem as something that may affect you; yet the problem does not define who you are nor does it necessarily determine the future.   To read more about Narrative Therapy, click here.
