  1. What is your main therapeutic approach?
  2. How many sessions on average for an issue like mine?
  3. What's your rate and cancellation policy?
  4. Do you offer in-person, video, or both?
  5. Are you registered on the official professional list (ADELI, HCPC, etc.)?
  6. Do you have regular clinical supervision?
  7. What do you do if we get stuck on a topic?
  8. Are evenings or weekends possible?
  9. Is there a delay before the first available session?
  10. How do you handle communication between sessions (SMS, email)?
