I once saw a therapist who went by "process time" rather than clock time, and it almost always ended at or before 90 minutes during a difficult session, and when it was time to end, it felt right. 60 minutes is harder, but doable. I've had more 60 minute sessions conclude naturally than have felt forced.

This is what my T does. I didn't realize it was a specific technique. Sometimes we end at 60 minutes, and sometimes we end at 2 hours.
