Abstract
Solution-focused play therapy (SFPT) is a strengths-based approach to play therapy that helps children work through challenges by building on internal assets and external resources (Hartwig, 2021). SFPT is comprised of specific play therapy skills and techniques that are developmentally appropriate for all ages of children, with an emphasis on nondirective skills for younger children and more directive skills as children gain cognitive and verbal abilities. As a strengths-based theoretical modality, SFPT focuses on identifying small, measurable goals, and then working with the child to identify skills and strategies that can help them reach their goals. This article will review the history, evidence base, and foundations of SFPT, the solution-building process, and SFPT basic skills, techniques, and interventions. This article serves as an overview of the SFPT approach and underscores why this approach should be recognized in the play therapy field.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
