Brief therapy differs from other schools of therapy in that it emphasises a focus on a specific problem and direct intervention. In brief therapy, the therapist takes responsibility for working more pro-actively with the client in order to treat conditions faster. Rather than the formal analysis of historical causes of distress, brief therapy helps the client to view the present from a wider more functional context and understanding. By becoming aware of this new understanding, clients will undergo spontaneous and generative change.
I use brief therapy techniques which focus on bringing about positive changes in the fastest most effective way possible. Because of the focus on results, rather than the study of the problem itself, brief therapy has a superb record of dealing with a wide range of issues and problems very quickly. Clients are often amazed that a problem that has been with them for years and years suddenly evaporates, often in as few as two or three sessions.
