problems and solutions
Erickson created a revolution in psychotherapy by shifting the focus 180 degrees from looking for causes in the past to creating solutions for the future.
He wrote in the Foreword to "Change" that in his experience people came to therapy not so much because of the unchangeable past, but because of some discontent in the present and a desire to better their future.
Steve de Shazer created Solution Focused Therapy as his expression of this principle.
Bill O'Hanlon extended this further by creating Possibility Therapy clarifying Erickson's revolutionary approach as it related to counselling conversations.
I am adding my ideas to these pioneers as a way of honouring them, and also to explore simpler and easier ways of achieving these results.

Hi rob.. thanks again for this course and content.. i can personally relate to the "delema" of future concerns.. it being a factor needing to be adressed.. without forgeting past problems may also have effects on a present situation..great info..
Gald it's useful.

Hello, this video was incredibly useful in creating an altered perception of changework, and a fantastic starting point to the program. When connecting people to resources that they've lost touch with, if they claim they never had a resource that they currently need, would a good approach be to help them tap into other resources they DO have in order to help them create a solution? Thank you!
This is such a refreshing approach. I have always struggled with black and white approaches and trying to sort out the complexity of causes. I'm so excited o learn more deeply this approach.
