Starting Counselling for the First Time? Here’s What to Expect (and Why It’s Okay to Be Nervous)

Not sure what to expect from your first counselling session? You’re not alone — starting therapy can bring up a lot of nerves, questions, and “what-ifs.” In this post, I walk you through what actually happens in a session, common fears I hear from first-time clients (like what if I cry?), and why you don’t need to have it all figured out before reaching out. If you’ve been thinking about counselling but aren’t sure where to begin, this one’s for you.
