This is different for every client. The amount of sessions needed for the change you desire depends on many different factors, such as the topics you want to work on, the pace that feels comfortable for you, the time your body and mind need to integrate changes, and the frequency of sessions.
The ultimate goal of counseling is that you won’t need counseling anymore! In our first session, we will jointly set counseling goals that we’ll regularly review to assess your desired outcomes of our work.
Typically, sessions happen weekly or bi-weekly. I often recommend weekly sessions for the first 2-3 months to build a solid foundation and effect visible change. We then review your counseling goals/intentions, which we define in our first session, and then jointly decide which frequency will be best for you to continue with.
