My T. sees everyone for 50 minutes. I had gotten used to 45 minutes, which I gathered was pretty standard these days. It seemed strange, so I asked him about it- thinking he was losing track of the time and going over it. He said he had always had a 45 minute session with everyone until a few years ago, and then he realized that it was not quite long enough- either for him or his patients! So now it's 50 minutes for everyone. It really does seem longer and better, and because of what he told me, I feel like I'm with someone who really enjoys and cares about his patients. It's strange how much difference 5 minutes makes!
How long are your sessions?
