The very next day I began putting into practise some of the key points of SST in the course of ongoing “conventional” sessions, and I have to say that I noticed an im-provement in my subjective experience in terms of: - focus on the patient’s goal within the specific session; - more accurate restating of resources and engagement in therapy (which, I noticed, increases the feeling of partnership in the process); - and, most of all, improved results in terms of effectiveness, of systematic feedback during the session!! All this leads me to say I’m delighted to have acquired this new methodology and I’m very happy to continue sharing new developments in SST and my personal experiences!

Clinical supervision , as we know, is a crucial component of a therapist’s journey from the moment they begin their training to the consolidation of their practice.

Single Session Therapy and the new challenges for global mental health

We open the year by addressing a fundamental theme for our profession of psychologists and psychotherapists , namely the situation regarding mental health and the intervention programs planned in the coming years.

Even before the pandemic, the data on mental health were not reassuring and the difficulties resulting from the pandemic wave have accentuated an already precarious picture both in terms of the increase in mental distress and with respect to the responses provided by the health systems .
