I think being committed to the sessions, so making sure that when a session’s booked in you do, you know, everything you can to be at each session that’s booked in and prioritising that. Also the therapist will often ask you to do different things in between sessions. Together you’ll set tasks and goals for that week. So, making sure that you’re committed to doing those things in between sessions is really important as well for the success of the therapy.
