How can I get over a fear of going to a psychologist?
Walk in to the therapist office and say exactly that....”I’m nervous to be here.” We know the hardest visit is the first and are prepared to make you feel at ease. The first visit is to about you and to give you a chance to see if you would like to partner with the psychologist to work toward some change in your life. We are not judges, moral police, or parents to our clients. And always remember, you are the consumer and if it’s not a good fit, you don’t have to return. READ MORE
