Believe it or not, an entire clinical community exists around SST, or Single Session Therapy. It is a very direct and solution-oriented way to think about and approach mental health therapy. It is a very strategic model, built to provide value and resolution for the client within a single session. Why is this a good thing? Well, some clients are busy or resistant  to therapy (for cultural or other reasons), and may not even entertain going to therapy if they think about coming for many sessions in a row. This means we have a unique opportunity to extend important services to a deserving population and hard-to-reach group of people.

In this “single session” workshop, I will discuss the nature of single-session therapy (SST) and its foundations. I will then present the features of the single-session therapy mindset and the practical strategies that flow from this mindset. I will also do a live demonstration of SST with a volunteer willing to discuss a personal issue that they wish to resolve. Finally, I will also discuss common reservations therapists have about SST
