First Session
Siddhant Kataria
In this session, we will begin understanding what has brought you to therapy. You may be struggling with anxiety, overthinking, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, emotional overwhelm, work stress, life transitions, or something that feels difficult to put into words.
The first session is usually focused on:
- Understanding your concerns and current difficulties
- Exploring relevant personal, emotional, and life history
- Identifying patterns that may be contributing to your distress
- Clarifying what you would like to change, understand, or work towards
- Discussing whether therapy together feels like a good fit
You do not need to prepare anything before the session. You also do not need to have a clear explanation of what is that you plan to work on here in therapy. We can begin wherever you are.
While some people leave the first session with greater clarity, therapy is not usually about providing immediate solutions or advice. The pace and direction of therapy depends on your concerns, goals, and circumstances.
