Description

Single session therapy has been used in Europe for many years in the form of walk-in clinics to help offer mental health services when there are long wait times for a standard course of therapy. If you work in integrated care, you know the value of being able to jump right in. Single session therapy offers a specific skill set to keep the parameters of the discussion narrow and to allow a clinician to move quickly. One session can make a big difference in the patient's immediate disposition by developing an action plan together and relying on outside support and assistance. This modality can fit into just about any model of integrated care (and you can bill for it!).
