Working with Solution Focused Brief Therapy in Healthcare Settings
Working with Solution Focused Brief Therapy in Healthcare Settings is an evidence-based approach that enables people to make meaningful change in their everyday lives. This book shares ideas on how speech and language therapists, along with others working in medical settings, can integrate Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) into their therapeutic interactions to support clients handling acute or chronic health conditions.
It outlines core aspects of the approach in an accessible format, bridging the gap between theory and practice. The book provides guidance on adapting SFBT for clients living with communication disabilities. It offers suggestions for different clinical situations, with real-life case examples drawn from working with people living with Parkinson’s disease, stroke, motor neurone disease, cancer, and chronic pain.
Combining practical advice with photocopiable resources, this book covers:
- Establishing person-centred, holistic goals for therapy
- Future focused descriptions
- Building on a person’s resources and successes
- Responding to distress
- Supervision and support
This accessible book can serve as an introductory text for those new to this approach and will also be invaluable to clinicians who have already received some training in SFBT. It is likely to become a trusted resource, supporting allied health professionals and others to ensure their therapy is grounded in client priorities.
