ABSTRACT

The chapter describes a Solution Focused method for working with children suffering from diverse emotional and behavioural problems. The method was developed in Finland in the 1990s by a small team led by the author consisting of special education teachers and a Solution Focused psychotherapist. The chapter explains the 15 steps of Kids’Skills and illustrates the procedure with a case report originally reported by a Swedish teacher who used the approach successfully with a child suffering from aggressive outbursts of anger.
