ABSTRACT

These are the minimum session numbers, and key sections of the programme may need to be extended before continuing to the next. For example, if a client cannot effectively describe and observe judgemental thoughts (i.e. operationally use non-judgemental stance) then further consolidation is needed before proceeding with exposure. A maximum of 20 sessions is recommended. Each session should last approximately 50 minutes, although the time for Sessions 9 and 10 may require to be extended.
