How does your length in therapy compare to what you envisioned it would be when you started?
I started during after a family death and assumed I’d have 3 – 5 sessions to become stable, learn coping techniques then be on my merry way. Little did I know 25 sessions later I’d still be sitting in that chair! I told T this recently as my one year mark is end of June so I laughed at how what I thought I was signing up for wasn’t what I needed. She and I never discussed what my session length expectation was just we’d evaluate as time passed and since it was my first foray in T I had nothing to compare it. I wondered how often this happens or if it is spoken more clearly at the start of T so each person is aware of the expectation.
