For those who've struggled with the therapy relationship, attachment and maternal/paternal transferences etc... What's your thoughts on doing less sessions instead of more?

My thinking is, that the intensity might not be so bad if I only went every other week instead of weekly. The week I didn't go might give me more time to regroup.

In my last therapy, I found the attachment to my therapist really triggered things for me and one session per week never felt enough, I actually wanted two sessions per week but couldn't afford it.
It seems strange then to suggest even less sessions but i wondered if once per fortnight might help me manage the therapeutic relationship better?

Anyone got any experience of this? ( or am I in total avoidence mode? )
