Description

Single session therapy (SST) can be defined as therapy that both therapist and client agree from the outset to take place in a single session. The therapist acts as if the first session were the last. SST is a therapy approached one session at a time.

Research shows that one session is, de facto, the most common length of therapy and that SSTs are often effective on a wide variety of issues. A structure will be presented to organize the tasks and skills involved in the different phases of therapy (pre, beginning, middle, end, follow-up). Case examples will illustrate useful techniques both in single sessions and in longer treatments.
