This book presents a research-based solution-focused applied psychology approach (SoFAP-P) that is efficient and effective in helping clients address challenges and can be applied to a wide range of psychological domains.Lessons learned from preceding psychological models, including psychoanalysis, behavioral therapy, humanistic psychology, family systems therapy and the pioneering contributions of Milton Erickson and the groundbreaking solution-focused therapy of Steve de Shazer and Insoo Kim Berg, culminate in this innovative SoFAP-P approach. Based on a thorough analysis of many solution-focused case studies, this tested and validated scientifically based protocol can be used as a learning guide to better understand the SoFAP-P, as well as the innovative qualitative methodology used to validate it. Cauffman and Weggeman show how this design science research (DSR) methodology is used to design, test and validate a generic set of actions that yield interventions to effectively apply to solution-focused client cases.The book demonstrates the importance of SoFAP-P to both psychological science and society and offers a glimpse into its growing potential as an intervention model. Those interested in the field of DSR will benefit from the overview of one of the first applications of DSR methodology in the psychological sciences, as well as students and academics in applied psychology.

"Cauffman and Weggeman propose a way to extend the solution-focused approach into the field of applied psychology. They call their approach a Solution-focused Applied Psychology Protocol (SoFAP-P) by using a scientific innovation called Design Science Research as a methodology to ground their practice. Their conceptualization and presentation of SoFAP-P is true to the assumptions, spirit, and practices of the approach’s founders, Steve de Shazer, Insoo Kim Berg, and their colleagues at the Brief Family Therapy Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, U.S.A. Practitioners, researchers, and theorists alike will find much to admire and use in this clearly written, lively, and engaging book."Dr. Peter De Jong, PhD, M.S.W. , Calvin University, USA "By developing a scientific basis for a psychological treatment – the SoFAP-P design – they have played a pioneering role in the application of DSR to the field of applied psychology. As a co-developer of DSR, I hope this book stimulates further innovative developments to bring DSR methodology to the field of psychology."Dr. Joan van Aken, Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands.
