If you follow these articles you have seen one thing: several therapists of different approaches over the years have supported, experimented and implemented principles and practices later found in Single Session Therapy.
An example of this is Article 11 known psychotherapists who adopt the principles of the Single Session.
How can Single Session Therapy be integrated into an institution that provides mental health services for children, adolescents and families?
Continuing the path of discovery of the different contexts in the world in which the logic of the walk-in is applied in integration with the Single Session Therapy, in this article we will focus on a particular service present in Ontario, the Reach Out Center for Kids (ROCK ), whose characteristics and type of experience are very interesting with respect to the objective we have dealt with so far, namely that of rethinking the way of conceiving psychological intervention and the management of mental health services.
Do you know that several “well-known names” in psychotherapy adopted the Single Session mentality?
Although we are in 2017, we have already had the opportunity to underline how Single Session Therapy has been studied and implemented in many contexts for many, indeed many, years.
With which categories of people can the Single Session Therapy be applied?
We recently published an article that referred to the use of SST in relation to particular problems or difficulties.
With today’s post we want to propose a further point of view, always based on the concept of applicability. That is to specify which categories of users / patients can benefit from a single meeting, without necessarily having to undertake a therapeutic path.
Furthermore, we will not take into consideration the classic categories of mental distress, such as depression, anxiety, obsessive disorders and so on, but we will give a different perspective, useful to propose Single Session Therapy. Â

How can Single Session Therapy be implemented in professional practice? Today we want to illustrate 2 ways to be able to integrate it into your professional practice, especially in private practice.
With this article we address all those professionals (psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, doctors, nurses, social workers, rehabilitation technicians, etc.) who see psychotherapy, or more generally in the helping relationship, a service aimed at the person and for this reason, they feel the constant need to do research, update themselves and come into contact with innovative practices in order to maximize the effectiveness of their intervention and respond in a targeted manner to changes and new requests from citizens.
Is it possible to give the person asking for psychological support what they need, when they need it?
We are confronted with a society and people that have changed a lot compared to just a few years ago. In a previous article (The future of psychotherapy) I reported some data on the trends and prospects of the health system, particularly in the area of mental health.
How should the psychologist’s approach change accordingly, in order to continue to reach and help people?
Single Session Therapy can be integrated in different ways within professional practice. One of these is to use it for particular problems.
So far we have dealt with how to integrate TSS into professional practice, starting first with the description of the method and the theoretical principles underlying it, then exploring the possible areas of intervention, up to experiencing it in the therapeutic context.
But in practice, how is Single Session Therapy carried out?
In the article Where to practice Single Session Therapy I considered in which contexts this framework can be used and with which orientations it can be integrated. I have also declined, as you have read in the previous articles, Guidelines and Principles of the 3 main models (Californian, Canadian and Australian) that practice Single Session Therapy in the world.
In many states, a new way of offering psychotherapy and psychological counseling has been taking place for several years: walk-in services. What are? And why should we know them and begin to implement them too?
Try thinking about an event that changes your life.
Done?
Now write it down and remember what happened. define the time for the event that changed and re-oriented your life. In most cases, the duration of significant events isn’t that long, isn’t it?
Taking a cue from daily life, you will have realized that often a corrective emotional experience (Alexander, 1946) is something that in a short time generates unexpected changes and progress.
