Anybody has an answer for this?

I had three sessions last week, it was a bit rough towards the e...

Three sessions would be exhausting. There is no problem with how many you do - but how you manage it and the affect / emotion it may generate afterwards including the next few days. Assuming that it can take a few days to roll through I, personally, would not want to do more than two per week.
 
I have done 2 sessions so far. I'm starting once weekly this coming Monday. I would not suggest doing it the times a week. After my second session it was almost debilitating. It's now been over a month since my last one cause my therapist didn't have any appointments and it's been hard. I would start with once a week. Make sure you're doing lots of self care and also reach out to a few safe people to let them know what's going on so they can support you. Best of luck!
