Highly recommended! Lipchik has an understanding of Solution-Focused Therapy that soars above that of most contemporary writers. She somehow manages to rise above the minutiae of therapeutic "tricks" while avoiding the trap of getting herself and her readers lost in dense theoretical analyses.

As a therapist, I keep this book within arms' length always, and consult it frequently. Amazingly, I never put the book down without having experienced some sort of epiphany -- sometimes small and sometimes of great importance.

My only wish is that I had a dozen more books as helpful as this one.

Used this book as a supplemental text for a Solution Focused Brief Therapy class and I found it very useful.

The amount of grammatical errors in this book makes it very difficult to read. Example, page 87 therapist "what do you think made a different for you." Page 86 "The purpose of the advantage question is to stimulate some both-and thinking because....These are but a few examples of how this author doesn't make any since in her writting. Not a recommended book at all. To confusing to read.
