Be prepared to talk about your situation. Here is the thing: Growth is painful and for the majority of people that growth is 110% worth it. Everyone starts off having certain goals for themselves. For example, many people want to improve certain symptoms, feelings and thoughts about themselves. Others want to heal parts of their past and/or overcome sabotaging behaviors or limiting beliefs. Before each session you can take some time to reflect and ask yourself what feels the most relevant/important for you to focus on right now? Goals are important for self growth and provide a starting point for conversation.
