LuvHorses, I would think your first visit would be like an assessment of sorts; a general discussion of what brings you to therapy. A discussion of what you hope to attain from therapy and also it’s an opportunity to see if you and the T can work together. Keep in mind it’s not all 100% complete in the first visit but like I mentioned an assessment. Developing a working relationship takes time and after a few sessions you will have a better idea if the T is a good match.
The T will most likely ask you numerous questions which is a typical standard for helping them understand your needs and plans. Keep in mind, their there to “HELP YOU” to support your present situation. If you feel they aren’t there for your best interest then that’s not the best T for you. This is imperative they are there to be supportive, kind, understanding and knowledgeable about the therapeutic process. Through these processes one can often grow confident in the relationship and this will foster health mentally. If the about aspects are present then seek another therapist. [emoji3590]
