I've seen that, too. With ex-T I wasn't feeling better after 24 sessions (with my first T, whom I saw for about 6 months, 10 years ago, I don't think I was feeling any better either - but I terminated very abruptly with her so that might colour my remembrance).

Current T I haven't had five sessions with yet, so couldn't say. It does seem weird to me to make that kind of firm statement about something as fluid and varied as therapy.

What are your own thoughts?
