In the first session with a psychologist, you can expect an introduction where the psychologist will explain the process of therapy, confidentiality, and what to expect in future sessions. They may ask about your background, reasons for seeking therapy, and any specific challenges you’re facing. The first session is an opportunity to get to know each other and to set goals for your work together. It’s normal to feel a bit nervous, but rest assured, the psychologist is there to support you and create a comfortable environment for open communication.
