Too often doctors, therapists, and social workers ask \"what's wrong in your life?\" rather than \"what do you want?\" Ronald E. Warner's Solution-Focused Interviewing is a practical guide to talking to clients using a solution-driven and strength-based approach that empowers clients and helps them to find lasting solutions to their problems. In Solution-Focused Interviewing, asking questions about clients' goals and resources ­- the strengths that will let them change their lives - is the basis of a three-phase therapeutic process that builds empathy before helping clients to set realistic goals and build a plan to achieve them. Based on more than two decades of solution-focused therapy workshops and Warner's extensive clinical experience, Solution-Focused Interviewing is the first skill development manual based on this innovative tri-phase approach to interviewing. | Solution-Focused Interviewing by Ronald E.
