OUR METHODS
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
At Paz Mental Health, solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) is used to help clients quickly identify practical solutions to their challenges and achieve meaningful change. SFBT is a goal-oriented approach that focuses on finding effective solutions rather than exploring the root causes of problems. This therapy is ideal for clients who are seeking short-term, targeted interventions to resolve specific issues in their personal or professional lives.
Focus on Solutions, not Problems
Unlike traditional therapy models that often delve into the past, SFBT centers around the present and future. In sessions, we work together to identify what’s already working well in your life and how you can build on those strengths. By keeping the focus on solutions, clients can create positive change without getting bogged down by their challenges or past experiences.
Setting and Achieving Goals
A key aspect of SFBT is setting clear, achievable goals for therapy. These goals provide direction and purpose to each session, helping clients stay motivated and focused on progress. Whether you’re looking to improve communication in your relationship, manage stress, or achieve better work-life balance, SFBT helps you outline the steps needed to reach your desired outcome.
​
SFBT emphasizes the importance of using your strengths to overcome difficulties. By recognizing the skills, resources, and strategies you already possess, you can apply them to resolve current challenges. This strength-based approach encourages empowerment, allowing clients to see that they have the tools within themselves to create lasting change.
​
Brief and Focused Therapy
SFBT is designed to be a short-term therapy model, typically lasting between 5 to 10 sessions. Its focused nature makes it ideal for clients who are looking to make progress quickly and efficiently. Although some clients may choose to continue therapy for a longer period, SFBT aims to help you make substantial improvements in a relatively brief time frame.

If you’re ready to make tangible changes in your life, solution-focused brief therapy can help you identify practical solutions and take actionable steps toward achieving your goals.​
