When we first meet, I’ll spend time getting to know you. You’ll tell me what brought you here, and we’ll talk about what you want to change or work on. I’ll ask some questions about your life—family, school, friends, and things going on now—but only what you feel okay sharing. I’ll also explain how I work, talk about privacy (what I keep secret), how often we’ll meet, and any costs. You can also ask me questions. At the end, we’ll pick one or two small goals to start with together. Cuando nos encontremos por primera vez, dedicaré tiempo para conocerte. Me contarás qué te trajo aquí, y hablaremos sobre lo que quieres cambiar o trabajar. Te haré algunas preguntas sobre tu vida — familia, escuela, amigos, y lo que está pasando ahora — pero solo lo que te sientas cómodo compartiendo. También te explicaré cómo trabajo, hablaré sobre la privacidad (lo que mantengo en secreto), con qué frecuencia nos veremos y los costos. Tú también podrás hacerme preguntas. Al final, escogeremos juntos una o dos metas pequeñas para empezar.
