How many sessions will I need?

​

It's difficult to estimate how many sessions you might need and the honest answer is - it depends. Which I know isn't helpful! Most of my clients attend around 16 -20 sessions in total if they are prepared to put the work in between sessions.   My aim is to treat emetophobia as efficiently and quickly as I can but the reality is that your nervous system will have its own pace that it wants to work at and I like to respect and honour that. It doesn't matter if your progress is faster or slower than others; what matters is that you are headed towards recovery, a recovery that starts to give you your life back on your terms. 

 

There are some clients I work with over a longer period if their problems are more complex or longstanding, or they wish to put change in place at a slower pace. Some of my clients choose to book in check- in sessions every few months to ensure that they are maintaining the gains they've made in therapy.
