Many may be using a form of this and not even know it. -- Diane Smith, School Counselor 20090105 The author knows solution-focused counseling inside and out. He describes in excellent detail how to use this technique with multiple problems and multiple ages. The examples are spot on. -- Cynthia Knowles, Prevention Specialist 20090105 This should be a required text for a school counseling degree. -- Jill R. Boyd, Counselor and Olweus Bullying Prevention Trainer 20090105
