14 Mar Top 5 tips for getting the most from therapy
Attending therapy, especially the first session, can be a daunting experience for many people. This is completely normal, and it is often helpful once you know what to expect as you navigate this journey towards a thriving mental health with your psychologist.
Here are some tips to help you get the most out of therapy:
Know your top goal.
Think of psychologists as a resource you can lean into to move you closer towards your goals in life. Out of all the goals you may have, what is the top goal you would like to work on? For example, skills to manage anxiety or setting some interpersonal boundaries?
Having a goal in therapy allows your psychologist to keep track of progress, and encourage you closer towards what motivates you.
