How long does therapy take?

It may take several sessions before you start to notice progress and, as such, therapy is often seen as a commitment. The duration of therapy depends on the reasons for coming and the complexity of the issue. It is my hope that, with time and gradual awareness of self, we can work towards your ability to see more clearly what it is you want your life to look like and to feel equipped in making the changes you need in order to get there.

Therapy can be uncomfortable at times, but it’s about untangling that deep knot in your chest. It’s about pain, joy, challenge, relief, change, and it’s about believing that you are worth the journey. As a therapist, I will value your worth, accompany you as we navigate the difficult moments, and commit to providing you with a non-judgmental and safe space.

I set periodical review dates so that we can re-assess any goals and ensure you are getting what you need from therapy. Because life can only go forwards, we are in a constant state of change and, therefore, there is always something to figure out and work through.

Generally speaking, however, when you are no longer getting anything out of therapy, that may be a sign that you are ready and equipped to end support. Of course, you may return to therapy in the future, but it can be immensely empowering to take what you’ve discovered during your therapeutic journey and to apply it independently.
