>its the way I feel when Im there. I dont like that - vulnerable. Dont like vulnerable :-| But you need to be sometimes. Right?
yeah thats right. you need to feel vulnerable sometimes. if you feel vulnerable then i guess that might be because you are talking about something that is really hard and when you are doing that... well... you have to do that to make proper progress really. if you didn't feel vulnerable then i guess you would just be having a social chit chat which is all very well but it wouldn't be helping you deal with the stuff that is hard.
that being said...
trust can take a little time
and usually the first session is kept pretty light
before you go...
you might want to have a think about why you are going.
whats up?
what are the issues that are sending you to therapy?
what is it that you are wanting to have a little help with?those are pretty much guaranteed to come up and so it can be helpful to have thought a little about them before hand. it doesn't have to be a whole heap of stuff and you can change your mind later.
