you

0:34

hi I'm no noise and I'm in Sioux timber

0:38

welcome to our videotape solutions step

0:42

by step in this video tape like in our

0:45

book of the same title solution step by

0:47

step in so and I are going to show you

0:51

solution focused therapy solution

0:53

focused therapy techniques in typical

0:55

clinical situations with clients who are

0:58

harmfully using drugs and alcohol let me

1:03

say a little bit about the solution

1:05
focused therapy the most important

1:09

characteristic of this model is very

1:12

much future-focused

1:14

since we believe the future is created

1:18

and future is also negotiated we are

1:24

paying attention to clients notion of

1:29

how they want their life to be different

1:32

what is their idea what is their idea of

1:35

how what is the desirable way for them

1:39

to be our second point is the fear for

1:44

the client generates their own ideas

1:48

about how they want their life to be

1:52

often times when they need the client

1:54

for the first time they have no idea

1:57
because this is something they have

1:59

never thought about and they are very

2:01

preoccupied about what has happened to

2:04

them and so through this process of a

2:08

conversation was therapist they arrive

2:11

at how do I want in my life that is not

2:14

there right now and so this is very

2:17

important for those clients that we see

2:20

that are mandated we're actually with

2:22

the so called

2:23

involuntary client right these are

2:25

clients that have been told over and

2:27

over and

2:28

again what they have to do including

2:32
that they have to come to therapy

2:36

highlighting their homegrown experiences

2:41

their homegrown solutions is a vital

2:44

part of how this works right so that

2:49

brings us to the third point of the

2:52

model that is that we absolutely believe

2:55

that clients do have strengths and

2:58

resources and solutions often times they

3:02

have own solutions to their own

3:04

difficulties but again they are not

3:07

aware that they had these until we

3:09

engage them in conversation in such a

3:12

way that they will discover their own

3:15

solutions and that they do have they do

3:18
know what to do or their the first point

3:23

is because of this the whole approach to

3:27

working with clients tend to be very

3:29

very optimistic that they do they can

3:32

change their future their future is in

3:35

their hands they do know what to do

3:37

about it and as a result of that many

3:41

clients tell us how respectful this

3:45

approach is of them and of their ability

3:49

and so it's it's results in a very very

3:56

new torie respectful way the work was

3:59

people in some very tough situations

4:03

well into we've got a couple of miles of

4:06

videotape to show yes what we've done is

4:09
grouped clinical situations into

4:16

question types what we're going to be

4:19

showing you are questions about

4:21

pre-session change about exceptions to

4:25

the problem we're going to be showing

4:27

questions about goal negotiation and how

4:30

we do this with clients will show you

4:33

questions about knowing how does the

4:35

no something is different how do people

4:38

around the client know that the client

4:40

is capable of the changes we're going to

4:43

be showing you a couple of different

4:45

ways of asking and following up on the

4:48

miracle question scaling questions wide

4:51
variety of scaling questions are going

4:52

to be presented and then some follow-up

4:55

questions will show you what are logical

4:59

ways to follow up to some of these

5:02

questions that we ask clients since you

5:06

are many of you are very interested in

5:08

how does this model apply in working

5:11

with groups especially DWI driving while

5:19

intoxicated toxic lips forgotten the

5:24

what how does these different kinds of

5:28

techniques different kinds of asking

5:30

questions how does it work with a group

5:33

setting we also will show you and again

5:37

highlight these techniques as they

5:40
appear we're going to highlight in the

5:42

bottom of the screen so you will be able

5:44

to follow those techniques okay then get

5:56

much information on you before this

5:59

meeting and can you tell me a little bit

6:01

about why you're here

6:03

well um basically me and my girlfriend

6:09

had a fight yeah and it is it was really

6:13

a silly fight it was over a guy called

6:16

him the house for her and I asked I

6:19

asked her a simple question who he was

6:21

and she really I felt that she was lying

6:24

so I said that she was my okay and it

6:27

Excel to an argument and then eventually

6:30
to me hitting her a couple of times okay

6:34

okay and and so you've got to be here

6:38

because you got

6:40

wellyes by our probation officer

6:43

referred me to you okay okay okay so

6:47

your probation officer wants to see

6:49

something happened and she says that I

6:51

need to see what the problem is with my

6:55

temper okay okay well let me at this

7:00

this visit worthwhile for you I like you

7:04

say you know okay I'm glad I came to see

7:05

that guy honestly and I'm a 21 year old

7:09

man I don't think anything you could do

7:12

for me an hour to change hmm okay okay

7:19
well let's say it did let's just pretend

7:23

from home let's say did that this was

7:25

some kind of a different hour in

7:26

something something causes you to walk

7:29

away from there saying well that wasn't

7:31

that bad what might that be

7:38

that's hard to say no I really don't

7:42

like I said I really don't see anything

7:45

that could but I'm open-minded I mean

7:47

I'm here so I might as well try to get

7:49

something out of it okay

7:51

okay so so you've got some ideas that

7:55

you want to get something out of this

8:10

now you've got me kind of curious as to

8:13
what that might be that you could get

8:15

out of this well actually I my problem

8:22

is I tend to be in a place in a wrong

8:26

place at the wrong time I don't feel

8:29

like I'm a bad guy I just you know tend

8:31

to be caught up in a lot of different

8:33

situations wrong place wrong time

8:36

okay I understand your name is Terrence

8:40

8:43

old yes uh-huh

8:44

8:46

grandmother Oh your grandmother well she

8:51

was kind of noticing me as I been

8:53

drinking recently and doing drugs and

8:56
everything and she seems kind of

8:59

depressed that I've gone to this and I

9:01

haven't been able to stop it and I've

9:03

tried to get help you had yes I have

9:06

well seems like nothing has been helping

9:08

9:11

thinking a lot about what might be

9:14

9:21

so what you it was your grandmother's

9:25

idea or your idea uh-huh well it was

9:29

part my idea cuz I see the way she she

9:32

just doesn't like me to be this way and

9:34

I think it would be better off for her

9:36
and for me uh-huh I just get off the

9:39

drugs and try to go straight you said

9:41

hold a job for a while whoa Oh so how

9:46

9:53

11:14

involved in drugs and I mean it's pretty

11:17

serious the cocaine and yeah then makes

11:20

drug dealers are on you trying to get

11:23
