I saw her for the very first time yesterday and I was really disappointed. I thought i would like her because she's a woman and I thought I would like her vibe. Her feedback to me felt judgemental. She seems a little out of touch. She's honest, which is great, but it comes out in a slightly hostile way.
I'm a Christian and she asked me my beliefs on death. When I told her, she told me I was wrong and cited a verse from the Bible that proves her point.

They can each have a different belief and each of them can get a verse from the Bible that proves their point.
Every time she had a judgemental thing to say, I had to counter her and whenever I did, she seemed appalled. I will not feel stupid or bad about myself in therapy.
