Who this tends to suit

People who like knowing where the process is heading, and who want something concrete to practise, tend to recognise themselves in this format. If homework between sessions puts you off, say so in the first conversation — it is negotiable.

Approach is not a ranking. Psychotherapy research has pointed for decades to the bond with the professional weighing as much as the method.
