Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) has inductively changed over the 30 years since it first appeared (in the early 1980s). The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the model by analyzing the work of Western researchers and practitioners who have studied and utilized it.
Methods: The literature was explored via three research questions: 1. How has SFBT changed? 2. What in SFBT has changed? 3. What are the theoretical and practical implications of these changes?
Results: Various continuous changes, as a result of inherent inductive development, were confirmed. The model itself is no longer simply one thing; it is now more accurate to refer to solution focused approaches. Two major trends were identified. Traditional approaches seek to investigate the developmental minds of the model developers, such as de Shazer and Berg. Integrative/eclectic approaches seek to expand the model, based on either systematic logic or realistic/pragmatic rationales.
Conclusions: SFTB is still a relatively young counseling model compared to other traditional therapeutic approaches. Therefore, it is time for us to give more attention to the changes that are now occurring within the model and open dialogue among solution-focused practitioners.
