What Can I Expect from Counseling? How Does It Work?
Scheduling and attending your first counseling session can be intimidating. Knowing what to expect at your first counseling session can alleviate your nerves and make you feel better about this decision. Here are the basics:
- First, you’ll have to fill out some paperwork about your medical history, insurance, and other basic information. This is pretty standard anytime you meet with a new doctor!
- Then, you’ll likely answer a few questions from your counselor, too. These questions might cover some of the same information from your paperwork, but your counselor will want to clear up any misunderstandings and gather more details.
- Your counselor will also explain that everything you share with them is confidential. You are in a safe and secure place, free of judgment.
- Once the above has been covered, your counselor will be able to focus on getting to know you! They will want to understand what has brought you into counseling, what you might be struggling with, and what you’re hoping to achieve during your time in counseling. This information will help them design a plan that will meet your needs and help you achieve the goals you’ve set for yourself.
From there, your counselor will continue to empower you to grow, heal, and achieve more with every session. If you’re ready to get started, reach out to Thriveworks Counseling & Psychiatry Manchester—we can set you up with a counselor, therapist, psychiatrist, psychologist, or life coach in Manchester, CT now.
