When we’re feeling stuck, traditional approaches often have us diving deep into analysing why we’re stuck. But what if there was a different way? This is where the Solution Focused approach comes into play, a powerful method that turns traditional problem-solving on its head.

In Solution Focused work, whether through hypnotherapy or coaching, we embrace the truth that nothing is fixed. Our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours are in constant flux, even when we don’t notice it. Every moment brings tiny shifts and changes – the key is learning to spot and amplify them.

Think of your mind as a flowing river rather than a frozen lake. Even in moments when everything feels static, there are currents moving beneath the surface. Solution Focused Practitioners work with these small movements. They help you notice and strengthen the positive shifts that are already happening.

So how does this work in practice? It starts with a highly focused conversation that zooms in on the microscopic details of your daily life. Instead of asking about change, we might explore specific moments. For example, “How would you know you’re more confident while making your morning coffee?” “What would your partner notice different about the way you move through your morning routine? What would be the first tiny sign that things are shifting in the right direction?”

These aren’t casual questions. They’re crafted invitations to notice the fluidity in your life. Breaking big changes into small, observable moments shows us that the difference we’re seeking isn’t as far away as we might think.

For example, imagine you’re feeling stuck in a cycle of work stress. Instead of the big picture, we might explore: “How does your breathing change when you handle work challenges effectively? How do your shoulders feel in moments when you’re confident about your abilities? What would your colleagues notice about your voice tone in meetings when you’re feeling more assured?”

This detailed exploration serves multiple purposes. First, it helps you see that you have some experiences of the state you’re trying to achieve. They might be brief or subtle, but they’re there. Second, it makes change feel more accessible. It does this by breaking it down into observable, achievable moments. Finally, it shifts your focus from what’s wrong to what’s possible.

This approach is beautiful in its simplicity. By noticing and boosting small positive changes, we allow bigger shifts to occur naturally. It’s like finding a tiny crack in a dam. Once you notice it, you can widen it over time. Then, the whole “stuckness” will begin to change.
