Summary:This book offers school counselors an effective and efficient approach to helping students through the use of Solution-Focused Brief Counseling (SFBC). The author presents a focused, step-by-step approach to counseling in schools that leads to rapid, observable change in students. The skills of conducting solution-talk discussions with students can help to reduce arguments, improve relationships, and teach young people to assume responsibility and make better decisions in a supportive environment. This new approach focuses on solutions rather than problems. Students learn how to set goals, rediscover their resources, and repeat past successes. -- Provided by publisher.
