Generally, the first few appointments are focused on assessment, meaning how has your presenting concern impacted your life and wellness, and on building a safe therapeutic relationship for the work ahead. Trauma-focused therapy is a deep process that takes time to do in a safe, and non re-traumatizing way. Each session and the overall course of treatment will be determined collaboratively with your specific goals and needs in mind.

It is not possible to predict an exact course of psychotherapy or amount of appointments needed, as every individual's needs are unique. However, as trauma therapy is deeply personal work, it often takes several sessions before improvements are noted.
