In solution-focused therapy, all that is required is a client's vision of how his or her life might be different and more satisfying. Especially applicable to facing end-of-life issues: those who are dying, those who are about to lose a loved one, and those who are grieving the loss of a loved one, solution-focused therapy helps clients think of possibilities rather than limitations. The ultimate goal of the book is to challenge the reader's assumptions about how to work with clients with life-limiting diseases and their families. It serves to show that solution-focused practice can be a useful approach in end-of-life and bereavement work. Including a general overview of solution-focused practice, tools and methodologies for practitioners as well as vignettes and transcripts from actual patients, it is a complete resource for professionals in bereavement care. This title applies solution-focused therapy (SFT) to bereavement and grief counseling. It includes transcripts and vignettes from actual cases. It written by a top practitioner with 30 years of experience in SFT. It is a valuable tool for social workers, hospice workers, psychologists and other bereavement and grief-counseling professionals.
