ABSTRACT
Single-Session Therapy therapists vary concerning the stance that they take towards their clients' problems. If they are solution-focused, they will focus on the client's problem only to help the person to identify and work towards a solution, However, if they are problem-focused as well as solution-focused they will spend some time assessing the client's problem. One of the purposes of doing so is to help themselves and the client to understand what the latter has previously done to try and solve the problem. This assessment of previous solution attempts is important in that it helps both the therapist and the client understand what the client has done to try to help themselves. This chapter provides two lists of possible questions that the therapist can ask the client. The first list concerns what the client themself has done to try to solve the problem. The second list concerns what other people have done to help the client solve the problem.
