We’ll be honest. We are picky. There are many collective sites you can join as an expert, coach or psychologist, where you can sign up if you meet the requirements. There’s nothing wrong with that, but that’s not what we do.

The more knowledge and experience, the better. But this knowledge should not come between you and the other person. If you can only see that person through the lens of models and theories, you will not be able to have a real conversation.

Knowledge and tools are there to help, to present to the other person, and to drop again just as easily if they don’t fit or work.

Our primary focus is on the other person’s skills, experiences and talents, and how they can be applied and improved in the current situation.

Would you like to broaden your horizons and work with our new Single Session Therapy (SST) method alongside your current work? Would you like to use your expertise to enable people to move forward after just one session? Then we are looking for you.

Working at Yet is easy to combine with other work. In fact, we believe that combining SST with other work (e.g. longer therapy sessions and/or giving business training sessions) actually works well. However, it is important that you are available for at least 8 to 10 hours a week, on average, so that you can master our way of working.

Important to know…

Administration and registration

Our work cannot be offered as insured healthcare. This is not currently possible because SST basically consists of only one session ‘at the point of need’. Hence, no diagnosis is made. This unfortunately means that the single session approach is not (yet) (financially) accessible to everyone. That accessibility is partly improved by the option organisations/businesses have of offering their staff/employees SST coaching sessions.

The advantage for the client is the quick availability and without referral or intake. The advantage for us as professionals is the minimal administration and registration.

We do not keep records or exchange letters with GPs or other organisations. De facto, administrative activities consist of keeping the schedule and briefly filling in an anonymous evaluation form after the session.

This evaluation serves to reflect on the session and share with each other what worked well and what could be improved or changed.

Course of the procedure

If we think there is a good match, based on the written information, we will schedule an initial video-call appointment (with Helen van Empel), during which we exchange information and see whether there does seem to be a good match. The next step is an introduction to the SST method to find out whether it does indeed suit you.

To this end, you will have two ‘trial sessions’ with fellow professionals with whom we are also discussing possible cooperation. Beforehand, we will send you a short introduction to the method. You will then take part in two sessions: as client for one potential colleague and as professional for another. You will therefore not only experience what it is like to do an SST session as a professional, but also as a client (I feel the latter is perhaps the most valuable information about a method).

The format is otherwise the same as for regular sessions; the session is a via zoom and lasts a maximum of an hour. In the client role, you will discuss something you have come up against. It doesn’t have to be anything big or shocking, but something you really are struggling with (no role play). That way you can really experience what it’s like from both sides and you’ll benefit from it yourself!

Unlike what usually happens, you will record the session so that we can watch it afterwards. While it may be hugely irritating to do a session in front of the camera (but the fact that it’s via zoom will hopefully mean you can forget ‘the camera’ very quickly), it is good to learn from each other.

I will respond to the session via email, and let you know whether we see a match from our point of view and why.

If we do see a match, and you do too, we’ll contact you about making practical arrangements.
