What To Expect
In order to get the most from CBT it is best to meet weekly, if possible. Each session last around 50-55 minutes and the number of sessions depends on the nature of the problem. For more straightforward single issue problems which have been around for 1-2 years, 5-12 sessions would normally be sufficient to resolve the issues. However for more enduring and complex problems,following the NICE guidelines, a typical course of CBT lasts between 6-20 sessions.
The first session will be spent assessing the nature of the problem and there is no obligation to continue after that first session. If you do wish to continue with therapy then we would agree the initial goals that reflect your best hope for the course of CBT and an initial number of sessions with a review date- usually sessions 5 -6.
