With my first T I hadnīt been in therapy before and I had no certain expectations. I said to the agency I wanted a woman, I think I also told them I wanted someone with quite a long experience of being a T.

I remembered I talked quite much, I was a bit nervous and I didnīt take in the T that much.

Now, Iīve seen several T:s for evaluation and I have different experiences with them all to some extent, in some ways the experiences are the same. Some T:s have used more or less a questionnaire, I personally donīt like that. Some T:s have talked too much in general terms, about issues in society and such things. That didnīt work for me either.

The T:s I liked have been those who let me talk quite freely but at the same time gives me questions to show me theyīre interested in what I tell them. Unfortunately Iīve experienced that some T:s try to seem more generous, more available and less biased than they really are. Therapy is sadly also a business.

I was wondering if anyone could share with me the experience you had when making you're very first visit with a therapist. It would really help me out! Thanks
