I learned and practiced this as an in-home family counselor for a year after I stopped working as a teen wilderness therapy guide and before I started teaching. With a strengths-based focused added to this, the solution is derived in part from what is already working, from the strengths already present. The trick is often in identifying that. And I believe to find that, you have to be able to articulate the story of the entity. Our stories hold shape understanding and, with a solution-focused approach, retelling of our stories over times shapes their plot lines for the better.Shawn White @swpaxhttp://swpax.usnoreply@blogger.com
