Wondering about session count
Lately I have been stuck replaying an argument after a rough breakup and it just keeps looping when I try to sleep. I read a bit about cognitive processing therapy and it sounds promising, but I am unsure what the usual timeline looks like. In your experience, how many sessions does cognitive processing therapy usually take before people notice real changes and feel more in control of those thoughts?

I went through something similar after a breakup where my mind kept replaying one conversation like a broken record, especially at night. What helped was learning that with cognitive processing therapy, it’s less about a fixed number and more about gradual shifts. Still, many people start noticing changes somewhere around 8–12 sessions. I found this breakdown helpful for understanding the flow: cognitive processing therapy how many sessions does it take . It gave me a clearer idea of what to expect without overthinking it.
