Leading From Behind: Episode 8 - Exploring Exceptions in First Sessions

n this episode of Leading From Behind, we take a closer look at one of the key elements of the solution focused approach.  In the first session, and after a full exploration of the client's preferred future, the solution focused practitioner asks about exceptions - moments or times when even small parts of the preferred future already occur.

In the resource section of the program, we identify two books on solution focused practice that have certainly stood the test of time:

• Becoming Solution Focused in Brief Therapy by John Walter and Jane Peller
• Working With the Problem Drinker: A Solution Focused Approach by Insoo Kim Berg and Scott Miller
