Brief therapy is a postmodern treatment mode that treats problems as social constructions, encouraging those seeking treatment to replace personal troubles (negative stories) with new problem-solving skills (positive stories). Becoming Miracle Workers takes the reader inside Northland Clinic, one of the most innovative and important centers of brief therapy in the world. Based on twelve years of research, Millers book discusses how brief therapy has evolved into its present, postmodern form. Millers clear and well-written descriptions provide clinicians with a behind-the-mirror view of social constructionism in action.Journal of Systemic Therapies
