A new kid on the block? The current state of solution focused practice

In the following account, the author reflects on an evolution in Solution Focused Practice he has observed since first learning the approach, including a change in the naming of the approach, the extent to which the approach is now used around the world, a more explicit theoretical foundation and signs of credibility. The account questions whether the approach might still be as novel for some clinicians now as it was for him when he first used it in CAMHS. The account also includes refinements in key tools, developed over time through practice-based learning.
