counseling session
Professional emotional support
A counseling session is a scheduled meeting between a client and a mental health professional—therapist, psychologist, counselor, or similar practitioner.
Sessions typically last 45-60 minutes and involve conversation aimed at addressing emotional difficulties, behavioral patterns, or life challenges: I have a counseling session every Thursday at four.
