Title: Recreating brief therapy
Description: "Emerging out of the traditions of Ericksonian, strategic, and solution-focused therapies, this book redescribes and reconceives brief therapy in light of postmodern and pragmatic thinking. The result is personal consultation, with a focus on conversation and inquiries that gently guide the pursuit of desire. This approach embraces a diversity of longings, goals, and ways of being in the world.

The key question, underlying both the authors' research and their consultative conversations, is "How can we create a space for dialogue and wonder, where purpose, preferences, and possibilities can emerge?"".

"This question leads to many others, which form the basis for the chapters of the book. Each inquiry is illustrated by case excerpts that show where this approach diverges from strategic and solution-focused questioning.
