How long is a therapy session?

A typical therapy session is 50 minutes.

An initial assessment for an adult is 50 minutes.

What is the typical length of treatment?

Mental health is as unique and complex as each individual because of this, treatment length can vary. At your first session an assessment will be completed including taking past/current history, creating treatment goals, and discussing estimated length of services.
