The aim of today’s article is to highlight the importance of introducing a family-centered approach into children’s health and developmental interventions, emphasizing how parental support and training can significantly improve therapeutic outcomes.
Ten years ago, when the Italian Center for Single Session Therapy began working systematically on Single-Session Therapy, the idea that a single session could constitute a complete intervention rather than a treatment that had been interrupted or was merely at its beginning was very much a minority view in Italy.
In today’s article, we will explore the benefits of Single-Session Therapy following major traumatic events.
This topic was previously addressed in an article in which, through the description of a clinical case involving a woman who experienced the 2010 Haiti earthquake, it was possible to observe how the Single-Session Therapy approach can be effectively applied in post-disaster intervention (Guthrie, 2016).
In this article, however, we will explore in greater depth the benefits of implementing Single-Session Therapy services in the event of disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and shipwrecks.

The aim of today’s article is to explore the application of Single-Session Therapy in the context of parenting support, focusing on one of the most current and complex challenges contemporary parents face on a daily basis: managing technology and its impact on family life.
We spoke with Dr. Rosita Del Medico, a psychologist and psychotherapist specializing in Brief Systemic-Strategic Therapy. She provides psychological services both in private practice and in collaboration with various organizations. She is also involved in training and personal development, delivering career-orientation courses for those pursuing a career in psychology.
In today’s article, we will explore supervision integrated with the Single Session Therapy (SST) method. Specifically, we will examine the Single Session Supervision process developed by Pam Rycroft, a clinical psychologist, family therapist, and researcher at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia. For many years, she has also been involved in training professionals in Single Session Therapy at the Bouverie Centre, an integrated research and practice organisation that provides services to families, organisations, and communities.
The aim of this article is to highlight the best practices that allow the therapist to optimize the effectiveness of a single session, creating the relational context that is essential for supporting the person on their path toward change.
The aim of today’s article is to share some reflections on Single Session Therapy (SST) in order to highlight its potential.
By examining four common misconceptions about SST (Young, 2018), we will explore how this method represents a flexible, diverse, and generative way of delivering services, capable of fostering transparent, client-centred practices, highly accessible mental health services, and stronger collaboration across services, disciplines, and therapeutic approaches.
Feedback is one of the seven core interventions of Single-Session Therapy (SST) according to the method developed by the Italian Center for Single Session Therapy. Unlike interventions that take place at a specific point during the session, feedback is a cross-cutting intervention that spans all phases of the therapeutic encounter.
In an SST session, the therapist must maximize every minute to accurately understand the problem, build an alliance, and facilitate change. Providing intentional feedback therefore becomes a crucial therapeutic tool.
The aim of today’s article is to present the application of Single Session Therapy (SST) in particularly complex situations.
This article describes a clinical case drawn from the literature, developed by psychologist Patricia A. Boyhan to illustrate the key steps of the Single Session Therapy approach in complex clinical settings.
