Single-session therapy

One session, one goal, real results. Short on time but in need of immediate help? Single-session therapy (SST) helps you move forward on a specific concern in a single, focused and effective meeting.

What is single-session therapy?

Single-session therapy stands out for its focused, intensive approach aimed at reaching a precise therapeutic goal in a single meeting. It is a fast, targeted solution designed to address a specific need without committing to long-term follow-up.

At Clinique TCF, we build on your internal resources and on concrete solutions, so you leave with clear, actionable steps you can apply today.

Why choose SST?

01

Effectiveness and speed

designed to produce fast results, it is ideal for urgent situations or targeted issues that call for immediate intervention.

02

Flexibility

it suits busy schedules and those who hesitate to commit to a long process.

03

Lower cost

limited to a single meeting, it is often more affordable than traditional follow-up.

04

Empowerment

it draws on your own resources to strengthen your autonomy and self-confidence.

05

Focused approach

a single issue, explored in depth, to quickly find concrete solutions.

06

Proven effectiveness

studies show it can be as effective as long-term therapy for stress, anxiety, low mood or relationship difficulties.

07

Less stigma

by its one-off nature, it is seen as more accessible and less demanding.

08

Preventing chronicity

by intervening early and in a targeted way, it keeps difficulties from settling in over time.

How to prepare for your session

01

Clarify your goal

before the meeting, take time to reflect on your concerns and on what you want to achieve.

02

Openness and engagement

come with an open attitude, ready to explore new avenues.

03

Preliminary questionnaire

we may offer a short questionnaire to better understand your situation.

04

A suitable space

choose a calm, private place where you will feel comfortable speaking freely.

05

Logistics

book a time free of distractions or other commitments, and be punctual to make the most of the session.

After the session

01

Reviewing results

take time to assess the impact of the meeting and the changes you notice.

02

Putting it into practice

apply the suggested tools, such as stress-management techniques, mindfulness exercises or behavioural adjustments.

03

Additional resources

readings, online resources or home exercises to extend the work you have started.

04

Remote follow-up

if needed, a follow-up by phone or online can be arranged.

05

An additional session (if needed)

although SST aims for immediate results, a further meeting always remains possible.
