Solution focused brief therapy

Solution focused brief therapy is when a person goes to talk to a helper (called a therapist) about their problems. The therapist helps the person focus on finding solutions, or ways to fix the problem, instead of just talking about the problem.

The therapist tries to understand what the person wants to change and what has worked in the past. They talk about specific things the person can do to make the problem better. For example, if the person is feeling sad, the therapist might talk to them about the things that make them happy and figure out ways to do more of those things.

The therapist doesn't tell the person what to do, but helps guide them to find their own solutions. They will also work with the person to set small goals that are achievable, so that they feel good about making progress.

Overall, solution focused brief therapy is all about helping people find solutions to their problems by focusing on what has worked in the past and setting achievable goals for the future. So, it's like going to a helper who guides you to find solutions to your problems by helping you remember happy things and helping you set small goals.
