Abstract
Effective communication between the family is essential for the permanence of the family, which is the cornerstone of society. Regardless, in the course of this interaction, it is expected to experience some problems and conflicts in the family that need to be solved. It is expected to see family members make an effort to overcome their unpleasant habits and behaviours. Occasionally, the distinction and motion triggered only by one family member can create a positive atmosphere in the entire family. The purpose of this research was to investigate whether solution-focused short-term therapy (SFBT) and interviews with only one family member could create a positive atmosphere in the family. Mrs. Ayşe, the interviewed lady, is a 39-year-old primary school graduate housewife. She is married to her husband, whom she lives with in Konya, and has three sons together. While Mr. Ahmet, Mrs. Ayşe's husband, did not attend the interviews which started with Ms Ayşe's application, their 18- and 14-year-old sons attended once. In order to support Mrs. Ayşe in developing problem-solving skills for the difficulties and conflicts in her marriage, six interviews were planned and conducted. In conclusion, the positive distinction that materialized in the client by the Solution-Focused Short-Term Therapy with the wife had a positive influence on the entire family atmosphere, and it was observed that the interviews contributed positively to the marriage and the family.
