“…With respect to faster remission in the 8-session psychotherapy condition, Reynolds et al (1996) also found a trend of faster remission in the 8-session compared to the 16-session condition. Eckert (1993) suggests that there is an acceleration of therapeutic change when a limit is imposed on the number of sessions given to a client. He believes that it is, therefore, possible to achieve the same result with fewer sessions.…”

“…The value of this out-of-session activity is well documented in the literature (Bohart & Tallman, 1999;Bowman & Fine, 2000;Cross et al, 1980;Eckert, 1993;Manthei, 1996;Presley, 1987;Reuterlov, Lofgren, Nordstrom, Temstrom, & Miller, 2000;Scheel et al, 2004;Silverman & Beech, 1979).

Research on counselling is often unknown to or ignored by counsellors. Research that explores counselling from the client's perspective is even less familiar to most counsellors, perhaps because there is far less of it compared to the quantity of research investigating the process from the counsellor's point of view. Nevertheless, research presenting the client's perspective can be a useful guide to both counsellors and their clients. With this aim in mind, this article summarises some of the research that has been conducted from the client's point of view and suggestsimplications for counselling practice.

“…Such responsive regulation may involve adjusting the length of therapy to reflect rapid positive change in clients, adjusting the focus and level of engagement with therapy in response to the available time, or a combination of both of these factors (Stiles, et al, 2008). Indeed, it has been suggested that rate of therapeutic change may be accelerated when a time limit is placed on therapy (Eckert, 1993;Reynolds, et al, 1996).…”
