Bereavement Counselling

This depends on many factors, including how far back the presenting issues extend. Most people begin to find relief within the first 4 sessions, meeting weekly, and by the end of the first session we decide how many sessions are needed to complete the work safely and effectively. For life events, couples counselling, anxiety and bereavement, this is normally between 6 and 12 sessions, while childhood or sexual abuse issues may need upwards of 12 sessions using a more psychodynamic approach.
