During the solution focused initial therapy session, it is common for solution focused therapists to ask, "what have you done since you called for the appointment that has made a difference in your problem?" this describes
STRENGTHS-REINFORCING COPING QUESTIONS. The therapist knows that by asking thse type of questions they can evoke and amplify whatever it is that the patient has already done in the way of making positive changes in their lives. These changes are not due to any therapy processes but encourages the patients to rely on their own resources rather than solely on the words and works of a therapist.
