This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.

While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more.
