Patient advice:
I would say some advice I would give them is: try to relax. It's a judgment-free zone. Bringing a list of medications is helpful just because we do talk about some of those things during our intake and it is nice to be able to reference them. And just knowing that this is a place where you can talk about anything that you want to and I am not somebody who is going to push you to talk about those hard things. It's really just going to come naturally, hopefully, you know, during the process of therapy.
