Start with what brings you here
A first session may begin with a simple question: what made you book an appointment? A recent event or an everyday difficulty can be a starting point.
You can say that you do not know where to begin. The psychologist can help you identify what you want to discuss, without expecting a perfectly organised account.
Understand the arrangements
Ask how a session works: its duration, fee, cancellation arrangements and how future appointments are organised.
You can also ask how your information is stored and about confidentiality and its limits. These questions belong in the conversation from the start.
Check in before you leave
Before the session ends, share what felt useful and what remains unclear. You can ask how the psychologist sees the next steps.
A first conversation also lets you consider whether the proposed setting suits you. Ask your questions before deciding whether to arrange another appointment.
