How long therapy takes to work will depend on your specific concerns, needs, and goals. Some people explore therapy to examine a new, challenging issue while others may visit a therapist to address ongoing problems or concerns.
In general, at Two Chairs our goal is to help our clients experience relief from what brings them to therapy as quickly as possible so they can feel better in their daily lives. Our research shows that working with highly skilled therapists and participating in our research-backed mental health check-ins are key to making meaningful progress. Although there are differences from person to person, most of our clients can expect to make progress towards their goals and complete their care within 12-20 sessions of therapy.
You and your therapist will be thinking about your progress along the way. And, our mental health snapshots and reflections will help you know if you are on track, or if your therapist needs to make any adjustments to better help you meet your goals.
