Weekly or fortnightly therapy: what should I consider?
The pace needs to fit the concern as well as your calendar and budget.
Long-term sessions from S$80

We explain your proposed arrangement.
Your appointment time is arranged with you.
Choose appointment frequency with the clinician around your needs, rather than applying a schedule from someone else's experience. Weekly and fortnightly appointments create different gaps for discussion and follow-through. Your budget, energy and availability belong in that conversation, but they do not determine clinical suitability on their own. MSF Family Assist: session number, frequency and funded care.
Describe the weeks between appointments
Are difficulties happening daily, mainly around one recurring event, or changing unpredictably? What support do you already have? Consider whether a proposed interval leaves too much waiting or too little time to reflect. You do not need to answer these perfectly before enquiring. A concrete description of how the last week went is a useful starting point for discussing pace.
Frequency is not the length of the whole course
Weekly or fortnightly tells you when you meet, not how many appointments you’ll eventually need. If alternate evenings are the only time you can manage, describe that constraint and discuss whether the proposed pace fits your needs. You can plan the next appointments while leaving room to review the work. The session-count guide below explains that separate decision.
Review rather than silently stretching gaps
If money or scheduling makes the current interval hard, raise it. A different pace, alternative support or another arrangement may be needed. Counsilio's guided onboarding considers practical constraints, with long-term sessions from S$80 and after-work slots available. Availability and the actual proposal still need to be arranged. Do not assume that a smaller budget makes a longer gap appropriate when you need more immediate help.
Questions about getting support
Is weekly therapy compulsory?
No universal frequency is prescribed. Discuss the appropriate plan and how it will be reviewed.
Can I reduce frequency whenever I want?
You can raise a change. Consider the care plan and applicable booking arrangements with the service rather than simply missing appointments.
