It's not, but it needn't take forever. I did 10 weeks once to get past a bad time; it didn't solve all my problems, but it helped me go on -- which I was in danger of not doing -- and gave me some mental tools I could use to cope with my problems.

My point is, a good therapist, or the right one, might be able to give La Petit Moi some kind of tool or coping mechanism that'll get her through tough situations in the short term while she works on her problems long-term. Mine certainly did.
