Preferred term

solution-focused brief therapy  

Definition

  • Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), also called solution-focused therapy or solution-building practice therapy, was developed by Steven de Shazer, Insoo Kim Berg, and their colleagues. As the name suggests, SFBT is future-focused and goal-directed, and focuses on solutions rather than on the problems that brought clients to seek therapy.
