An earlier experience of therapy that wasn’t helpful doesn’t necessarily mean therapy cannot help you.
Sometimes the approach wasn’t well matched to your needs, the relationship didn’t feel comfortable, or important aspects of your difficulties weren’t adequately understood.
Your circumstances and goals may also have changed.
If you’ve attended therapy before, we’d be interested in understanding what you found helpful, what didn’t work, and what you might want to be different this time.
Those experiences can provide valuable information when considering a therapist and treatment approach.
