Solution-Focused Therapy (TSR) is known for focusing on the future, goals, and resources rather than analyzing past problems. What's more, you can use many TSR tools yourself – without waiting for a session with a therapist. Here are 5 key TSR questions you can ask yourself today to better understand your needs and start building positive change.
What will my life look like when the problem disappears?
To pytanie nazywane jest miracle question – allows you to imagine a situation in which the problem magically disappears. This allows you to determine exactly what changes you want to achieve, what behaviors, thoughts or emotions will accompany you. It's not fantasizing – it's building a vision of a goal you can pursue.
What is already working in my life?
At TSR, instead of focusing on gaps, we are looking for resources. Ask yourself: what's already working out for me? What do I do well despite the difficulties? This allows you to identify your strengths and areas that you can rely on in the change process.
What small steps can I take to make it a little better?
TSR avoids big revolutions – it takes small, real steps. Think, what you can do today, tomorrow, this week, which will improve your situation at least a little. Even small changes have great power when done consistently.
Who can support me in this change?
We are not lonely islands. It is worth asking yourself: who around me can help me? Who supported me in the past? Sometimes just remembering that we have people around us who are ready to help gives us a sense of strength and courage to act.
How will I know if I'm going in the right direction?
This question helps define success rates – specific signals that will show you that the changes are working. Will it make you feel better? More energy? Less conflict? Clearly defined metrics allow you to see progress and stay motivated.
