What is the average length of time you treat these patients?
Answer
They say that about one year is the gold standard. If someone is able to participate, stick with the program, and show improvement within a year, that has a lot of success. I tend to work with clients who have MediCal or Medicaid. My clients have a lot of financial and family stressors. A year and a half is average for me, but it also depends how quickly they engage.
