Research evidence suggests that more frequent appointments over a shorter duration leads to the person experiencing benefit from therapy sooner than persons meeting with the therapist infrequently. However, I have seen clients meeting me fortnightly or once-a-month deriving considerable benefit from therapy too. I think frequency of appointments will depend on the person him/herself, the nature of the problem, and practical considerations (costs, scheduling and travel difficulties). My general recommendation for new clients would be to start therapy on a once-a-week (or more frequent) basis, to see how it goes and if positive changes occur, and to later consider increasing the length of time between appointments. We could return to a more frequent meeting arrangement depending on the client's needs and changing circumstances. Upon termination of therapy, clients are welcome to consult with me again in the future as needed.
