What it involves
Therapy sessions are appointments in which a trained professional, such as a psychologist or counsellor, talks with you about your difficulties and helps you develop ways of coping. Approaches differ. They include cognitive behavioural therapy, counselling and other talking therapies, and they may be delivered in person, by phone or by video.
Who it is for
Therapy is for people who want support with low mood, anxiety, stress, grief, relationships or other difficulties. You do not need a formal diagnosis to benefit from talking support, and a professional can help you decide which approach might suit you.
How long it usually takes
Sessions commonly last around fifty minutes to an hour and are held weekly or fortnightly. The number of sessions depends on your needs and the approach.
What to expect
At the first session the therapist asks about what brings you and what you hope for, and explains how they work, including confidentiality and its limits. Later sessions build on this. You can say what is and is not helping, and you can end therapy if it does not suit you.
Aftercare
Between sessions you may be asked to try small tasks or notice patterns. Take care of yourself after sessions that bring up strong feelings. Tell your therapist if you are not finding the sessions helpful.
When to seek it
Seek support when difficulties last, affect daily life or feel hard to manage on your own. If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, call your local emergency number.
What affects the cost
Cost depends on the therapist's training, the length and frequency of sessions, whether they are online and any cancellation policy. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
