Important Questions to Ask
What is your approach? Ask if they use evidence-based methods like CBT or Motivational Interviewing.
Are you trauma-informed? Ensuring your therapist is sensitive to past experiences is important for safety and trust.
What are session logistics? Ask about session length, frequency, and flexibility to fit your schedule.
Do you accept insurance or offer self-pay? This helps you plan financially and understand options like superbills for reimbursement.
What is your experience with my concerns? Whether it’s life transitions, overwhelm, or women’s issues, experience matters.
Why Asking Questions Matters
Therapy is most effective when it feels safe, supportive, and tailored to you. Asking questions ensures you feel confident, understood, and in control of your healing journey.
