This is the third item's accordion body.It can be difficult to determine an exact number of sessions that may be most beneficial. Depending on the concerns a person is looking to address, 6-8 sessions may be all that is needed. Others want to engage in more long-term work, which may last anywhere from 3 months to a year. We will discuss your goals for therapy in the first session and I can give you a best estimate of the number of sessions needed. I aim to make sure each session is meaningful and that we stay on track to address both your short-term and long-term goals.
