Frequently Asked
Questions:
How many sessions do I need?
Depending on your particular
needs, the average number of hourly sessions varies from
8 to 15. However, some clients only need 1 to 5 sessions
if their issues are very specific. Others choose to have
more long-term therapy with less frequent sessions over
a longer period of time. The time you’ll need in
therapy is discussed with you in your first session and
there is no commitment. With some initial guidance, you
make appointments as you wish.
What does treatment usually
involve?
Psychologists at The Psychology Practice utilise evidence-based
treatment interventions. This means that the therapeutic
tools that we use are supported by up-to-date clinical
research and have been shown to have significant impact
in helping or improving people’s lives. The treatment
approach we incorporate depends on the needs of the client
but common therapy interventions are Cognitive-Behaviour
Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal and Counselling Therapy,
as well as Narrative Therapy and Self Psychology.
How
will information about me be treated?
Any information that
identifies you or that you give to your therapist will be
treated with utmost privacy and respect. Information about
you is kept confidential and is only disclosed to additional
parties with your prior consent. The only time a psychologist
is required to disclose information about you is if it is
demanded by law or if there is reasonable evidence to believe
that someone is at-risk of harm if we do not divulge
the information to the appropriate authorities.
