Your first session is an intake — a chance for your therapist to get to know you, understand what's brought you in, and begin to get a sense of your history, patterns, and goals. You'll also have plenty of space to ask questions and get a feel for the relationship.
You won't be expected to share everything at once. The pace is yours to set. Most people leave their first session feeling a sense of relief just from having been heard clearly.
