You might feel unsure and maybe a bit anxious heading into therapy for the first time, and that’s totally normal.
Your first session is about setting a good foundation. It's an opportunity to learn more about what you can achieve and how the process works.
Most importantly, you can start to evaluate how you feel with your chosen therapist. It’s also a great time to ask lots of questions, which we’ll cover below.
At the beginning of your first therapy session, your therapist may walk you through a few more details, such as the types of therapy they practise and how to book future sessions.
Your therapist will want to understand more about you and how they can help. So be prepared for some questions, such as:
Why you came to therapy
What you want to achieve
If you've attended therapy before
What's happening in your life
Through all of this, your therapist will probably be taking notes. This might take some getting used to, but it's important so your therapist can refer back to your answers at a later date.
While it’s valuable to be open and transparent with your therapist, remember, you don’t have to share anything you don’t feel comfortable sharing. It’s ok to go at your own pace.
Get to know your therapist
Just as it's important for your therapist to get to know you, it's equally important that you feel comfortable working with them. You can ask them questions about their approach, the therapy process and anything else you like.
