Focusing on What Works: How Solution-Focused Therapy Can Help with Anxiety, Depression, and Addiction

When you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or addiction, it's easy to feel trapped in the problem - stuck in cycles of worry, low mood, or self-defeating behaviour. For many clients, the idea of therapy can feel overwhelming because they assume it will involve digging endlessly into the past. But not all therapy looks the same. Solution-Focused Therapy offers something different: a way to build change by focusing on strengths, resources, and what’s already working.

Unlike traditional models that examine the problem in detail, Solution-Focused Therapy is about creating a vision for the future. In our sessions, we explore what life might look like if things were just a little better - and then we work together to build on small, achievable steps that move you in that direction. This approach can be particularly effective for clients facing addiction, anxiety, or depression. When your daily experience feels heavy or chaotic, having a clear focus on solutions - rather than problems - can offer a sense of hope, motivation, and control.

It’s not about ignoring the past, but rather about shifting the spotlight to your capabilities, your choices, and your inner resources.

Clients often find this method refreshing. It’s practical, empowering, and tailored to your own pace and goals. Whether you’re in early recovery, feeling stuck in anxious thinking, or struggling to find joy, Solution-Focused Therapy helps you identify what’s possible and how to take meaningful steps toward it.
