SFBT Is Now the Most Commonly Used Therapy in Finland: Interview With Peter Sundman, Ben Furman and Riitta Malkamäki

Finland, a country of 5.6 million people, was the first in the world to get Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) accepted into the national psychotherapy frameworks and systems. In this interview, three veteran practitioners, supervisors and trainers look back on how this was achieved, what helped and where SF practice is now. This interview is not only a piece of historical reflection, it will also be of great interest to those seeking to establish SF practice in their own countries, grow the field and consider the pros and cons of engaging with established national organisations.
