A typical therapy session provides a structured, yet flexible, environment to address your unique concerns and needs. Here’s what you can generally expect: Check-In: The session usually begins with a brief check-in, discussing your current feelings and any recent developments since your last session. Setting the Agenda: You and your therapist will decide on the focus of the session. This might involve discussing a specific issue, exploring emotions, or working on particular therapeutic goals. Exploration: You’ll delve deeper into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors related to the agenda. The therapist may use various techniques, such as questioning, reflecting, or guided imagery, to help you gain insight. Intervention: Depending on your needs, the therapist might introduce interventions or strategies. This could include cognitive-behavioral techniques, relaxation exercises, or role-playing scenarios. Skill Building: You might learn new coping skills or strategies to manage your concerns more effectively. This can include mindfulness exercises, communication techniques, or problem-solving strategies. Review and Homework: Towards the end of the session, you’ll review what was discussed and any progress made. The therapist might assign homework to reinforce session work, such as journaling or practicing new skills. Closing: The session wraps up with a summary and setting goals for the next session. Your therapist will ensure you feel supported and prepared to continue your work outside of therapy.
