Hi all -

I'm brand new here, and have spent several hours this weekend reading the posts. There is some very helpful information here.

I had my very first session with a T last week. She seemed really nice, asked what I guess are pretty standard get to know you questions, she let me talk, but didnt probe into serious stuff.

I am going to meet with her again on Wed. I really hope it works out so that I dont have to go through the process of looking for someone else. Also, it's quite expensive and I will not be using insurance so I want to make sure that I get the most out of each session. If I sat there silent the whole time I think I would leave feeling like I wasted a bunch of money! So I'm nervous about this second meeting, will she have more questions for me, can she pick something to talk about based on what she wants to know, or how do I even begin to know where to start?

Also, since I dont have experience with therapists, besides that gut feeling how will I know that I should stick with her?

Thanks for reading.
