There is no agenda on what you should or shouldn’t disclose in therapy. Therapy is a safe space for you to share your thoughts and go down the journey of self-exploration. Here is a list of some possible topics to discuss during your therapy sessions:
 
Therapy:
         ⁃talk about how it feels to be in a therapy session
         ⁃ask about the process of therapy
         ⁃discuss anything that seems to be bothering you or causing a conflict
         ⁃how to open up to others
         ⁃past therapy experience
         ⁃why you are in therapy
         ⁃need for a referral
         ⁃ask the therapist what you can talk about
“Small” issues:
         ⁃there is no “correct” topic to talk about in therapy
Noticeable patterns in your behaviors or thoughts:
         ⁃read from your journal or notes
“Now” feelings:
         ⁃how you are feeling in the present
Relationships:
         ⁃family, friends, partners, work, etc.
         ⁃good and bad relationships
         ⁃current or past relationships
Past traumas:
         ⁃talk about your past
Life challenges:
         ⁃life changes and transitions
         ⁃triggers
What you have been avoiding:
