Individual psychotherapy sessions usually last between 50 to 55 minutes and can be conducted in person or via telehealth (during the COVID-19 Public Health Crisis), depending on the client’s preference, health status and availability. The frequency and duration of therapy sessions can vary depending on the client’s needs and the therapist’s recommendation.
During the first session, the therapist will conduct an intake assessment, asking the client about their presenting concerns, personal history, and current life circumstances. They may also conduct an assessment to gather information about the client’s mental health, social support, and coping skills. Based on this information, the therapist will work with the client to develop a treatment plan that addresses their specific needs and goals.
