For part 2 of our baby-step special on finding your therapist, Momma B PhD, holds your hand all the way to the therapist’s office as we cover what’s gonna happen at your first session. What should you expect to share? Should you always feel better after your first session? How many sessions does it take to know if your new therapist is a good match for you? All these questions answered, as well as some personal therapy adventures from Momma B’s past as a “young, naive thing in Philadelphia”.
