This podcast is the narrated version of my article “Do you have any advice for a therapist doing her first session?”.
My quick advice for a new therapist with perfectionist tendencies who is nervous about seeing her first client.
In this episode I talk about:
- Tips for your first session as a new therapist
- Why it’s better to be an imperfect therapist than an intimidatingly perfect one
- Why we’re not doing therapy to or on our clients, but with them
- The effectiveness of therapy as a right-brained, intuitive activity
- Why you should learn therapy and then forget it.
