We present a numerical and analytical study of the self-detection scattering type near field optical microscopy (SD s-SNOM), a recently demonstrated technique based on a combination of self-mixing interferometry and scattering near-field microscopy. This scheme, which exploits a terahertz (THz) quantum cascade laser as both a laser source and detector, allows to investigate the optical properties of resonant materials in the THz range with resolution far beyond the diffraction limit. Our study, developed by using a modified version of the Lang-Kobayashi model, is focused on the weak feedback regime (Acket parameter $C\approx 10^{-1}$), where we derive an approximated method for the retrieval of the scattering coefficient of the SD s-SNOM configuration applied to a sample of Cesium Bromide (CsBr). These results were used in turn to derive the dielectric permittivity of the sample, reporting a good accuracy in the estimation of its phonon resonances.
