Throughout the therapeutic process, you will 1.) be an active participant in your treatment and 2.) collaborate with your psychologist, from identifying your own goals to determining when you have met those goals are ready to wrap up your therapeutic journey.
It is not uncommon for folks to attend therapy at multiple points throughout the lifespan. We can easily resume our work together when new challenges or symptoms pop up.
Your psychologist will be transparent about the therapeutic process. If you have a question about the treatment, the diagnosis, or any part of the therapeutic experience, please ask!
Discomfort and change are part of the process; as we like to say, "If we are too comfortable for too long in therapy, we might be missing some wonderful opportunities to grow!"
You can expect a very different kind of relationship from any other you have had in your personal life. While your psychologist is a stranger to you, you will be asked to engage in discussion with them around deeply personal issues, and discussions may look very different from those you have with your friends, family, co-workers, and partners.
There is essentially no right or wrong way to do therapy. If desired, your psychologist is happy to make recommendations along the way and offer guidance in the therapeutic work.
