Question 1

What Happens in the First Session?

Accepted Answer

The first session is about getting to know you, discussing the issues and reasons for you coming in, and finding out what you would like to get out of therapy. It is also a time for us to find out if we are a good fit to work together. Be honest about:
If you are looking for a certain type of treatment or therapy style
If you disagree with something said in session
If you are not satisfied with your therapy progress
We will also discuss:
Consent/confidentiality
Frequency/duration of appointments (weekly/biweekly)
Payments (insurance, credit card)
Therapy is about you, and figuring out what works best for you.
