A first therapy session usually begins with your practitioner learning what brought you to care and what support you are hoping for. You do not need to have the perfect words ready.
You may discuss confidentiality, scheduling, therapy style, fees, and what feels urgent or important. It is also okay to ask your practitioner about their approach and experience.
The goal is not to solve everything at once. It is to begin with enough safety and clarity to take the next step.
