“After the first session [with a therapist] , ask yourself some questions. First, ‘Did I like this person? As we get to know each other better, will it be ever easier to talk about personal or difficult things? Is this person for me? Does he or she have a blueprint already in mind of what it means for me to finish the therapy successfully, or is the real message I am getting: Let’s find, celebrate and actualize your dreams for yourself?’  If the answers to these question are the right ones, go for it!”
