Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Single Session Narrative Therapy

The proposed single session narrative therapy intervention has been widely implemented in walk-in therapy clinics in Ontario Province, Canada. In these clinics, 60-minute psychotherapy sessions, informed by narrative therapy, are available on a walk-in basis. The therapist collaborates with a patient to co-develop a useful and meaningful focus for the session and then engages the patient in conversation that is respectful but shifts their way of thinking about the presenting problem. The therapist highlights and documents the patient's values and skills and works with the patient to create an action plan. If the therapist identifies additional treatment needs, the patient is offered an external referral to specialty mental health services.
