MISUNDERSTANDINGS ABOUT BRIEF THERAPY

Many people have the misunderstanding that Brief Therapy is about setting limits on time or number of sessions.  It is not!  Brief Therapy is about setting goals, having a collaborative relationship between the therapist and client, and a therapist that is more than a "bobble head."  This more directive approach often leads to the "side effect" of decreased number of sessions or shorter therapy time.  Brief Therapy is also about skill development and practice.  Often times, clients will gain knowledge and skills and may take a break from therapy.  After they have used their new skills and knowledge, they may come back to therapy to achieve additional goals.
