If you are interested in making your practice solution-focused quickly and effectively, look no further than this text.

the differences between the solution-based approach and traditional therapy
establishing a successful therapeutic alliance with clients
determining detailed, meaningful goals for the client

possible "dead ends" in applying this type of therapy
and much more!
