Absolutely. Recent evidence shows that clients prefer to determine the direction of their therapy. Some common preferences are:
I want a more free-flowing experience
Allow me to find my own way
I’d like a gentle approach
Teach me skills to deal with my problems
I want to be challenged
I have a specific goal or concern to talk through
I need a little more structure in my therapy session
The answer to this is different for everyone. Some clients prefer short-term solutions focussed therapy and some prefer developing a longer term relationship and incorporating therapy into their lives. Some come in crisis and may require more frequent sessions initially, and then slow down as they progress. We can help you find a path forward that suits you.
