WHAT YOU CAN DO..
... TO GET THE BEST FROM YOUR SESSIONS..
1. Be honest with your therapist: Your goal is to show your true self without trying to hide aspects of your personality you may not feel good about.
2. Value your sessions: Placing value on your therapy will help you to value yourself. Life gets busy, but try to attend regular appointments to ensure therapeutic continuity.
3. Be open to the process: Research suggests that therapy is most effective when you feel a connection with the mental health professional treating you. Trust that through therapy you are moving forward, even if it doesn't feel that way.
4. Accept that change may take time: Psychotherapy is not an instant process but involves working with your therapist over time. Be patient with yourself, your therapist and the Counselling process.
