Talk Therapies

Does therapy work?

Study after study and studies of studies
clearly demonstrate that it does and the
average client is better off than 80% of the
untreated sample.

All approached work equally as well with

No difference in outcomes between
different types of treatment or different
amounts of competing therapeutic
approaches.

Godley, S. H. Jones, N., Funk, R., Ives, M Passetti, L. (2004). Comparing Outcomes
of Best Practice and Researched-Based Outpatient Treatment Protocols for
Adolescents , Journal of Psychoactive Drugs. 36(1), 35-38


Meta-analysis of all studies between 1980-2006
comparing bona fide treatments for children
with ADHD, conduct disorder, anxiety, or
depression:

No difference in outcome between approaches
intended to be therapeutic;

Miller, S. D., Wampold, B. E, & Varhely, K. (2008). Direct comparisons of treatment
Modalities for youth disorders: A Meta-analysis. Psychotherapy Research, 18(1). 5-14


Which approach “fits with, engages, and
helps” that particular client at this moment
in time?

Miller, S. (2004)


“If its not working its not the
technique it’s the relationship”

“engagement is the number one
predictor of outcomes”

Miller, S.(2004)


THE ALLIANCE
Biggest Predictor of Outcome


Solution Focused in a Nutshell



The client constructs his or her own
solution based on his or her own
resources and successes

De Shazer, 1988, P. 50


First developed at the brief family therapy
practice Milwaukee in the United States.

Not for profit organisation started in 1978
and in 1982 therapists noticed exceptions
to problems in the therapeutic engagement.

Centre closed in 2007 rights transferred to
the Solution Focused Therapy Association

Outcome Research
SFBT may be helpful to clients
May be useful in a broad range of
applications
Research moving in the right direction
Efficacy phase
More careful study needed

Gingerich, J. W., & Eisengart, S. (2000)


How will you know that talking to me today
will be helpful?

When discharged how will you know that
being here in hospital has been helpful?

How will you know that you're ready for
discharge?

How will the magistrate know that you are
ready to go home?


What’s better?

What tells you that things are better?

What’s different?

What are you doing instead?


Exception
When the problem is less or absent what
happens?

Getting the detail


What is the first thing, the smallest thing
you will you notice that will tell you that
the miracle has happened?

What else will be happening?

What else will you notice?
