Referral for behavioral therapy

I received a referral for behavioral therapy. Does anyone have experience with it? Is it stressful? I’m not diagnosed, but received two papers from my therapist with suspected autism and I know I’m gonna get a letter from my health insurance company. I’m stressed and anxious I don’t know what to expect, living in Germany.

  • I don’t have first-hand knowledge, but a friend of mine has been doing CBT for quite a long time now (not sure how long) and there have definitely been phases where she was very worked up or exhausted because of it. Generally though, she says that she benefits from this kind of therapy although it was important for her to have a positive therapist-patient-relationship. She fortunately got lucky.

    I hope it’ll work out for you! Greetings from a fellow German.
