Structured Short-Term Therapeutic Intervention
Structured Short-Term Therapeutic Intervention involves the employment of specific behavioral and personal change methods over a planned period of time with the goal of bringing about beneficial changes in the client’s current life. The therapist’s efforts throughout the helping process are directed toward making problem and goal definitions as clear as possible, supporting the client in systematic, sequential problem solving, and using the pressures of an explicit time limit as a key factor in facilitating change.
