HOW FREQUENT ARE COUNSELLING SESSIONS?
You are the best judge of the best frequency of sessions. Every client is different in terms of their experience of counselling and how to make best use of it alongside the circumstances in their life. Unless you have a clear idea of the frequency of counselling sessions you need, Most commonly, weekly 50-minute sessions allows for some momentum to be gained and for counselling to be integrated within your life.
