The first session is a time to get to know your therapist, and determine ‘goodness of fit’. If for any reason you aren’t comfortable in working with him or her, you have the option to switch to another therapist. Generally, during the first counselling session the therapist will provided an assessment and together with the client determine a suitable treatment plan.
