A Practical Roadmap for New Therapists & Counsellors

Starting a first session can feel overwhelming. This book provides a clear, step-by-step roadmap for conducting a counselling or therapy session—from preparing before the client arrives to closing the session and planning what comes next.

Designed especially for new therapists, counsellors, psychology students and interns, it brings together session structure, essential questions, risk screening, documentation, goal-setting, psychoeducation, common first-session challenges and practical templates.

A practical guide to help you move from “What do I do first?” to “I know how to structure this session.”
