Solution-Focused Child Therapy
We know that children need lots of positive strokes, but all too often therapists focus on problems. In this compelling demonstration, see John Murphy encourage a family to recognize successes and focus on small changes for the future. The two boys, ages eight and ten, are struggling with fighting and turning in homework, leaving their single mother overwhelmed and discouraged. Watch as Dr. Murphy transforms this family’s discouragement into encouragement, building on their strengths and validating their successes. Jon Carlson and Don Keat introduce Dr. Murphy, and facilitate an in-depth discussion of the further impact and uses of the model.
