    In solution-focused therapy, which of the following would be considered an example of an exception-finding question?

    Explanation & Rationale

    Choice A reason: This is a miracle question, used in solution-focused therapy to help clients envision a future without their current problems. It is not an exception-finding question. Choice B reason: This question explores the impact of the problem but does not identify exceptions or times when the problem was absent. Choice C reason: Exception-finding questions aim to identify times when the problem did not occur or was less severe. This helps clients recognize their strengths and build on successful coping strategies. Asking about a time when the problem was not present is a classic example. Choice D reason: This question explores emotional responses and is more aligned with psychodynamic or humanistic approaches than solution-focused therapy.
