Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a goal-directed approach that focuses on solutions rather than problems.

This efficient approach builds on your existing strengths and resources to create meaningful change in fewer sessions.
On First Session, you can browse therapists who offer SFBT and watch their intro videos to get a sense of their approach. All therapists have their credentials verified during onboarding. Whether you prefer online or in-person sessions, you can book directly or request a free consultation to find the right match.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy is a goal-oriented approach that emphasizes solutions over problems. Rather than dwelling on what's wrong or analyzing the past, SFBT therapists help you clarify what you want to achieve and identify times when things have gone well. The approach assumes you have the resources needed to create change and focuses on building toward your preferred future.
How can SFBT help?
Many people find SFBT helpful for achieving specific goals, building confidence, and making practical changes efficiently. It can support you in identifying what's already working, recognizing your strengths, and creating a clear path forward. This approach is useful for a wide range of concerns and is particularly valued for its positive, empowering focus.
What happens in an SFBT session?
In SFBT sessions, your therapist will ask questions designed to help you envision your goals and identify resources. You might be asked the "miracle question"—imagining how life would be different if your problem was solved. Sessions focus on exceptions to problems, scaling progress, and setting small, achievable goals. The approach is typically brief, often 6-10 sessions.
How do I find an SFBT therapist?
On First Session, you can filter by specialty to find therapists who offer Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. Each therapist has a profile with an intro video so you can get a sense of their approach. You can book a session directly online or request a free consultation first. All therapists on the platform have their credentials verified during onboarding.
Is SFBT right for me?
SFBT may be a good fit if you prefer a practical, efficient approach focused on the future rather than the past. It's helpful if you have specific goals and want to build on your existing strengths. Consider booking a consultation with a therapist to discuss whether this solution-focused approach suits your needs and preferences.
How do I get started?
Getting started is simple. Browse SFBT therapists on First Session and watch their intro videos to find someone whose approach resonates with you. Once you've found a match, you can book your first session directly online. Many therapists offer a free 15-minute consultation if you'd like to connect first.
