Of course, you can’t always tell exactly how many sessions a person will need to get over a depression, or to successfully stop drinking, but you can give them an indication. So I might say:
"Many people can be helped within a few sessions and often times feel better even after a single session. (Remember the power of the placebo effect!)"
