Over and over and over again.
I've done it different ways. Sometimes, an extra appointment. Other times (and my personal favorite), a double apt - i.e. 1.5 hr. apt.
You don't need to justify having additional appointments. There are certain junctures in therapy that often just can't be done in 50min/wk. For example.. surfacing of unprocessed trauma, a current life crisis, a big rupture with the therapist, etc.
Get what you need, and there is no need to apologize for needing it.
