How Long Does Therapy Last?
Therapy is a unique process for each person and family, so there is no set length of time that works for everyone.
Those working on more severe issues (e.g., trauma, abuse, infidelity) may require more therapy. Weekly sessions for three months to a year is considered average, but you may need more or less time depending on the specific issues you wish to address and the number of people involved.
Additionally, some clients find it helpful to continue therapy for less frequent “check-in” sessions after initial issues have been addressed, and this may continue for as long as it feels helpful and productive to you.
