Next week I'm seeing someone for the initial meeting to set up counselling. I'm just wondering how I can get the best out of the sessions. I'm currently living with my mum away from home so I'm wanting to get well enough to return home and I can continue with therapy long term if needed but these initial sessions, hows best to approach it?.
I don't deal with when asked things like "and how does that make you feel" especially when I've just tried to explain it in the most articulate way I can think of, so I know this is going to be an issue for me. I don't know if there will be a delay between this first meeting and the rest of the sessions. Also how many sessions do you usually get on the NHS?.
