Your therapist will introduce themselves and explain their approach to therapy. They'll also discuss confidentiality and your rights as a client.
The therapist will ask questions about your reasons for seeking therapy, your current challenges, and your goals for treatment. This allows them to gain a comprehensive understanding of your situation.
Your therapist may inquire about your personal and family history, as it can sometimes provide context for your current experiences.
This is your opportunity to ask questions about the therapy process and address any concerns you might have.
