ABSTRACT
Slive et al. (2008: 6) describe the nature of walk-in therapy, thus:
Developed … as a result of community demands for greater accessibility to mental health services, walk-in therapy enables clients to meet with a mental health professional at their moment of choosing. There is no red tape, no triage, no intake process, no wait list, and no wait. There is no formal assessment, no formal diagnostic process, just one hour of therapy focused on clients’ stated wants … Also, with walk-in therapy there are no missed appointments or cancellations, thereby increasing efficiency.
