Therapy doesn’t have to take forever and requires you to relive old traumas repeatedly.
When you come to see me for psychotherapy, we will not start with your history and exploring your problem. Solution-focused Brief therapy (SFBT) is different. It is focused on you and how you want to live your life.
Solution-based treatment, California
You want to know how I can help you. I want the same thing. So, we will start by getting to know each other so you can feel comfortable talking about your life and what you want it to look like in the future. Once you know what you want, we can get started working on the details.
You most likely want your life to be significantly different than it is and has been in some areas, or you wouldn’t be coming for therapy. Together, we will figure out what that different thing that fits with who you are could be. Then, you can “plug” those differences into your life and “try them on for size.” This will give you a better idea of what the changes will feel like and how they fit into the lifestyle you desire.
Chances are that seeing a different, better life path will get you moving in the right direction. Once you see your “preferred future,” I will be your therapeutic support, helping you achieve it. We will explore options together and figure out how to hone in on details to support the broad picture.
Cut Straight to the Solution
Just ask me about Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. I am licensed in California, Nevada, and Florida. If you live in one of these states or travel between any of them, I would be happy to meet with you to see if we would be a good fit to work together.
When you use solution-focused therapy to make changes in your life, you can cut straight to the solution and start living the life you want sooner. You don’t have to suffer through things in your past that you don’t think would be helpful.
