Been in talking therapy for a couple of months now. The one I see Is generally pretty good. As @Johnnythefox says, the first few visits are a getting to know you phase. Then comes suggestions of treatment. Could be meds, a different form of therapy, exercise. Whatever they feel could help. Ultimately it's down to yourself as to what you think may work. I have seen different therapists down the years, some better than others. If you feel that you distrust or dislike your therapist , you can make arrangements to see a different one. I think it's an individual experience , it works for some, for others it's just not for them. Good luck with your session. Hope it goes well
