Systematic Review of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with Children and Families.

Abstract

This systematic international literature review of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) arises from the second Serious Case Review (SCR) of the death of Peter Connelly (Haringey Local Safeguarding Children Board, 2009), in whose case SFBT was being partially used within children’s social care services. The Peter Connelly SCR Overview Report included the recommendation to examine whether any models of practice had an influence on the way in which Peter’s case was managed. The intended audience for the report is the directors of all children and families' services.
