Pre-Therapy Processing | What to Talk About in Therapy

$5.00

A 4-page list of questions to ask yourself before therapy when you want to go but aren't sure what to talk about.

So many clients tell me they want to work on themselves but don't know what to bring to session. That's so normal! It can feel strange to take up a full 50 minutes for yourself. These questions help you check in before therapy & notice what you might want to process or get support with.

What's inside

  • 7 areas to explore: identity & self-esteem, self-care, emotions, decisions, relationships, trauma, and symptoms & coping

  • 4+ check-in questions for each area

Best for: therapy clients who want a little direction before their next session

Format: 4-page fillable PDF · a type-in writing box after each section · printable

Fill it in digitally: type your thoughts under each section before your session, right in the PDF. Works best in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader (desktop or mobile) or Preview on Mac. Save a copy after filling it in so your answers stay.

Or print it and fill it in by hand.
