This book aims to help therapists working with clients who struggle with
trauma by offering them solution-focused (SF) viewpoints and skills. The
book invites all professionals to change their focus from what is wrong
to what is right with their clients, and from what isn't working to what
is working in their lives.
The book contains 101 solution-focused questions (and more) for help
with trauma, with a focus on the clients' preferred future and the
pathways to get there.
As Insoo Kim Berg put it in her foreword for Fredrike Bannink's highly
successful 1001 Solution-Focused Questions: Handbook for
Solution-Focused Interviewing, "SFBT is based on the respectful
assumption that clients have the inner resources to construct highly
individualized and uniquely effective solutions to their problems."
From the more than 2,000 questions she has collected over the years,
Bannink has selected the 101 most relevant for each subject. Much of the
material in the 3-volume set is unique and did not appear in the earlier
work, inviting therapists to open themselves to a new light on
interviewing clients.
