ABSTRACT
J. Young suggested that the future of Single-Session Therapy (SST) could go in one of two directions. On a positive note, with the support of international collaborations in research, training and implementation, he thought it could increasingly have a significant impact on the way health services are delivered clinically and organisationally across the world. On the other hand, Young said that SST could have a less promising future where it would be seen just as a specific approach and not as a general mindset. Consequently, it could become a fading fad and be practised in smaller and smaller circles as those initially enthusiastic about SST gradually moved away from it. People would then revert back to older and more traditional ways of thinking about therapy and of service provision.
