Solution focused brief therapy is a brief therapy quite effective in a short period of time. It is at an infantile stage in India. The prevalence of mental problems and shortage of counsellors require a short therapy. The youth is the most active agent of development and their health is of utmost priority for any nation. In an effort to see the effectiveness of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) on depressed youth, the present research is carried on 8 college students. There are two groups- Experimental (4 subjects) and Control group (4 subjects). The experimental group is tested for depression using Beck’s Depression Inventory before therapy and after therapy. The control group is tested twice with a gap of almost same period. The pre- and post- therapy results are compared with the control group results.
