Solution Focused Therapy (SoFT)
The SoFT program addresses immediate stressors that can be managed in 3-4 sessions, focusing on learning, taking actions, and holding yourself accountable for your well-being. SoFT can also offer a safe confidential space where you can process your emotions over recent stressors.
SoFT has multiple focus areas:
- General well-being.
- Healthy sleep.
Sleep SoFT
Sleep SoFT helps students learn ways to achieve restful sleep in 3-4 sessions.
To explore if this is a good option for you, please contact Boynton Mental Health Clinic and ask about SoFT when you have a brief consultation.
Your First SoFT Appointment
At your appointment, you will complete intake forms and meet with a Brief Consultation specialist. The therapist will assess to see if SoFT is a good fit, then schedule your next appointment with the most appropriate service for your needs.
To schedule an appointment call the clinic during regular business hours:
