Just try and relax and go with the flow. The first time usually involves a lot of questions about you, what you hope to acheive by going to therapy etc. I find a good connection

ask questions too... what sort of therapy s/he does? what does that mean in layman's terms? are they willing to be flexible in their preferred technique?
ask as many things as you can think of.. i pretty much grilled mine. |

Hi Venny,
Welcome to PC. You can write down the things you want to say and hand them to the therapist at the beginning of the session. It will give you both a place to start. I wish you the very best, January
