Picking the Right Therapist

Описание: Dr. Charlotte Howard talks about 3 important questions you should consider asking your therapist as you go in for your first couple of sessions!

Your first few therapy appointments can be a bit nerve wracking, but it's a good idea to treat them as a mutual interview so you can figure out if this therapist is a good fit for you! Try and figure out how your therapist sees you working together and what types of things they think the both of you should focus on first. This will give you an idea of how good of a listener they are as well as the types of approaches they like to use. If you feel like something is off, or maybe they have a misconception about you it can be valuable to give them feedback on that and see if they respond with open-mindedness and curiosity or if they get defensive. Not every therapist will be a perfect fit for every client, but if they can adapt to your needs, are a good listener, and is someone who you can trust and respect then you could be on the road to a warm and healing relationship.
