This is really up to the client as it depends on a few factors such as the client’s schedule, the nature of the difficulty, finances, etc.  We recommend beginning with weekly or bi-weekly appointments and seeing how you feel after a few sessions.  Clients can consult with a counsellor for few sessions,  engage in short-term work lasting 10-20 sessions or engage in longer term counselling.   It really depends on your needs and what supports you.  Our sessions are 60 or 90 minutes in length.
