Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Exception questions in solution-focused brief therapy do not require ranking problems or symptoms on a scale of one to ten, but rather they focus on identifying times when the problem or symptom was not present or was less severe. This helps the client see that change is possible and that they have already demonstrated resilience and coping skills in certain situations.
