Solution focused practice challenges the conventional approach to bereavement counseling by emphasizing solution-building over simple problem-solving. Joel Simon, with over 16 years of experience in the field, demonstrates how this therapy can help clients think of possibilities, rather than limitations, when facing death or the loss of a loved one.
