There are many factors that contribute to a good relationship between therapist and client.
Ask yourself these questions: Do I feel understood? Does the therapist seem competent? Do I feel better or relieved after seeing my therapist? Can I imagine myself growing or progressing during therapy?
If you answer “yes” to most of these questions, chances are you have chemistry with your therapist. Try also to express your concerns, needs and expectations directly. This will give your therapist important information for his or her work.
