An authoritative, interdisciplinary book which outlines how solution-focused practice is particularly effective in addressing violent behaviour in clients and service users, encompassing work with both adults and children.

Solution-focused approaches have been used successfully with a range of violent behaviours from school-based bullying to severe domestic violence, as well as with victims of violence. Solution-focused approaches hold people accountable for building solutions to their violent behaviour. The book shows how to engage clients in solution talk as opposed to problem talk, set useful goals and help clients to develop new behaviours. It outlines the practice principles and working techniques that make up solution-focused practice with physical, emotional and sexual violence. Illustrative case studies and practice activities are provided.

This book is suitable for anyone working to help reduce violent behaviour, including social workers, counsellors, therapists, nurses, probation workers and youth offending teams.

1. Introduction. 2. Understanding The Position Of Each Person. 3. Finding exceptions or unique outcomes to violence and conflict. 4. Setting Achievable Goals. 5. Discovering Strengths and Resources. 6. Scaling Safety and Progress. 7. Ending a Session. References.

'Milner and Myers have drawn on extensive experience of practice and training to offer what for many could be a radically different and more effective way of opening up discussions about actions which are usually too difficult to talk about, let alone change.' - John Wheeler, UKCP Registered Systemic Psychotherapist and President of the International Alliance of Solution Focused Training Institutes
