Problem Solving Therapy for Primary Care Medicine (PST‐PC) was original developed in the U.K. by a research team headed by Professor Mynors‐Wallis in 1998. PST‐PC can be done individually or in a group setting. In order for PST‐PC to be effective, one must make sure the patient (1) understands the rationale behind the model and (2) understands it’s application. http://uwaims.org/files/pst/PSTPC_Manual_2013.pdf
An article in the British Medical Journal shows that PST is an effective way to provide a wide range of settings and with a variety of providers and patient populations. The treatment can be delivered by suitably trained practice nurses or general practitioners.”It involves 6-10 sessions, depending on the patient’s needs. The first appointment is for about 1 hour long since it includes psychoeducation and an intro to the PST model before PST is applied. The following appointments are about 30 minutes long.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC27250/
