Education Session Description

Solution-focused counseling is a comprehensive model that emphasizes clients' strengths,

resources, and effective coping skills to bring about positive change. If these resources—

called exceptions—are identified and amplified, then problem resolution can be brought

about in an effective and efficient manner. This advanced session offers an opportunity to

learn solution-focused principles and techniques for depression. Case examples illustrate

using solution-focused counseling with a variety of clients dealing with depression. The

program includes exercises aimed at helping attendees learn the material.

Education Session Objectives

1. Identify and review the main principles of solution-focused counseling.

2. Identify and review a solution-focused conceptualization of depression.

3. Identify and review solution-focused techniques for depression.

Formula First Session Task

Between now and next time we meet, I want you to observe so that you can tell me next time,

what happens in your life that you want to continue to have happen (cf. Molnar & de Shazer,

1987).

Principles of Solution-Focused Counseling

Solution-focus

Collaborative approach

Small changes can lead to big results

Emphasis on process

Strategic eclecticism

Brief by design, but not always

Responsiveness to diversity


Implications of a Postmodern Position

for Solution-Focused Counseling

Clinical reality as a social construction rather than an objective reflection of reality.

Counselors as participant-observers rather than independent of clients and problems.

A perspective that understands language as the distinction of treatment concern rather

than human systems as the locus of problems.

A collaborative approach and an emphasis on cooperating rather than a perspective

that views clients’ oppositions to change as resistance.

Problem and Exception

Problem:

o Problem: A subjective and/or intersubjective complaint

o Problem/Exception : The subjective or intersubjective complaint is subsumed

by the problem/exception formal theory which is used across cases to

conceptualize problems and change

Exception: “Times when the complaint/problem does not happen even though the

client has reason to expect it happen” (de Shazer, 1991, p. 83).

Theory of Change

Theory of Change: When the problem is the rule, then exceptions tend to remain hidden or

decrease. When exceptions are identified and amplified, the problem tends to decrease.

Exceptions can be amplified by encouraging clients to do more of the behaviors that have led

them to solve the problem in the past, or to observe times when they are dealing better with

the problem, or ascribe significant meaning to the exceptions.


Common Change Factors

Research in the area of common change factors (Lambert, 1992) clearly supports the theory of change

in solution-focused counseling (Guterman, 2013). Lambert identified four common change factors

that contribute most to improvement in counseling and psychotherapy. According to Lambert, each of

these common change factors accounts for the following percentages of improvement that occur in

counseling and psychotherapy:

1. Client factors (or self-help): 40%

2. Client-counselor relationship factors: 30%

3. Expectancy factors: 15%

4. Model factors: 15%

These findings support the theory of solution-focused counseling for two reasons. First, the finding

that client factors accounts for the most improvement in counseling (40%) affirms solution-focused

counseling’s theory of change. The primary function of a solution-focused counselor is to help clients

tap into their problem-solving resources and potentials. Although a wide variety of techniques are

used in the model (which accounts for 15% improvement based on the research), solution-focused

counseling is to be considered a process model because it attributes change mainly to what the client

does to solve problem rather than to the model. In effect, its focus on client factors is the model. The

second reason that research on common change factors supports solution-focused counseling is

because the model emphasizes the important role of the client-counselor relationship. The finding that

client-counselor factors account for 30% of improvement supports the unique emphasis that solution-

focused counseling places on developing a collaborative relationship between the client and

counselor.

Sudden Gains for Depression

In contrast to the commonly held view that clients improve gradually and slowly over the

course of treatment, research has shown that many clients experience significant

improvements suddenly, quickly, and often in one between-session interval (Aderka,

Nickerson, Bøe, & Hofmann, 2012; Hunnicutt-Ferguson, Hoxha, & Gollan, 2012; Tang &

DeRubeis, 1999; Tang, Luborsky, & Andrusyna, 2002). Several important conclusions have

been drawn regarding sudden gains.

1. Sudden gains can trigger an "upward-spiral" that contributes to clients eventually

coming out of depression (Tang & DeRubeis).

2. Sudden gains tend to be occasioned by critical events in treatment in which

substantial cognitive changes occur (Tang et al.).

Research in the area of sudden gains holds promise for crystallizing our understanding of

what transpires during change processes in the solution-focused treatment of depression. In

solution-focused counseling, it is theorized that clients have preexisting coping skills,

strengths, and resources (i.e., exceptions) that play a critical role in reducing depressive


symptoms. It is assumed that if these exceptions are identified and amplified, then marked

shifts in the client’s thinking about their depression will occur. The client’s sudden cognitive

shift to exceptions often contributes to an upward-spiral whereby significant improvement

can transpire suddenly and unexpectedly. The change processes in solution-focused

counseling can therefore be likened to the phenomenon of sudden gains (Tang & DeRubeis,

1999; Tang et al., 2002) insofar as significant progressions on the part of clients are not to be

considered as chance events or flights into health. Rather, these events are expectable

progressions.

In order for solution-focused counseling to be effective in the treatment of depression, it is

crucial for counselors to (a) recognize that sudden gains are inevitable and (b) assist clients in

actualizing these sudden gains. A starting point for (a) above is for counselors to take a not-

knowing position and join the client in the process of coconstructing the problem and goal.

Doing so allows counselors to consider possibilities for solutions that might have otherwise

been missed had they taken a more traditional, modernist perspective. Not knowing is not

easy given the a priori assumptions regarding depression that counselors frequently bring to

counseling.

Counselors often search for—and find!—some cause to depression. Counselors assume that

unless this objectively defined cause is identified and addressed, then the client will not get to

the root of the problem and therefore significant problem resolution will not occur. Sadly,

this effort to get to the cause of depression on the part of counselors often interferes with (b)

above; that is, identifying and amplifying exceptions and thereby actualizing sudden gains.

Stages of Solution-Focused Counseling

Coconstructing problems and goals

Identifying and amplifying exceptions

Coconstructing tasks

Evaluating the effectiveness of tasks

Reevaluating problems and goals


S.M.A.R.T. Goals

Specific Goals

Measurable Goals

Achievable Goals

Relevant Goals

Time-based Goals

Identifying Exceptions

Presuppositional questions: Ask, “When has there been a time when _____ (the

problem) has not happened?” or “When has _____ (the goal) happened?” rather than,

“Has there been a time?

Identifying small exceptions

Identifying potential exceptions

o The miracle question:

Suppose that one night there is a miracle and while you are sleeping the

problem . . . is solved: How would you know? What would be different?

(de Shazer, 1988, p. 5)

Questions for Amplifying Exceptions

How did you make it happen?

How is that different from how you have dealt with the problem in the past?

How did it make your day go differently?

Who else noticed?

What did you tell yourself to make it happen?

What does this say about you and your ability to deal with the depression?

What are the possibilities?


Solution-Focused Tasks

Task # 1

The client is told and asked, “Between now and the next time, I would like you to observe, so

that you can tell me next time, about those times when you are able to make it (the goal)

happen.”

Rationale: This task is given if the client is able to construct a problem and goal, and

identify and amplify exceptions.

Task # 2

The client is told and asked, “Between now and the next time, I would like you to pay

attention to and make note of what you do when you are able to effectively cope with or deal

with the problem.”

Rationale: This task is given if the client is able to construct a problem and goal and

identify exceptions, but is unable to amplify exceptions.

Task #3

The client is told and asked, “Between now and the next time, I would like you to observe, so

that you can tell me next time, what happens in your life (relationship, family, work

situation) that you want to continue to have happen.”

Rationale: This task is given if the client is able to construct a problem and goal, and

potential exceptions, but is unable to identify exceptions.

Task #4

The client is told and asked, “Try to avoid making any drastic changes. If anything, think

about what you will be doing differently when things are improved.”

Rationale: This task is given if the client is able to construct a problem, but is unable to

construct a goal.

Task #5

The client is told and asked, “The situation is very volatile. Between now and the next time,

attempt to think about why the situation is not worse.”

Rationale: This task is given if the client is in severe crisis.
