These aim to help the individual realise their potential and find the courage to move forward. Therapists can use this future solution to shape the techniques and questions that will comprise discussions.
It is essentially the future vision that drives the therapy process forward, ensuring that it is directional and, as a result, brief. These processes aim to evoke a sense of hope and expectation and make a future solution seem possible. They will also encourage them to explore past experiences and times when they were as happy as they see themselves in their future vision. In these discussions, the therapist will help individuals to envisage a clear and detailed picture of how they see their future - and how things will be better once changes are made.
SOLUTION FOCUSED SERIES
It is the role of a solution-focused therapist to help elicit and implement these solutions via a series of discussions. It works by helping them overcome problems without tackling them directly - using the solution-building concept to foster change and help individuals to develop a set of clear, concise and realistic goals. Rather than dwelling on an individual's weaknesses and limitations, Shazer and Berg's solution-focused therapy concentrates solely on an individual's strengths and possibilities to help them move forward. It is goal-directed and focuses on building solutions, rather than on solving the problems that clients bring to therapy. The solution-focused approach is a humanistic therapy, which focuses on self-development, growth and responsibility.
