What is the kindest way to start with therapy as a beginner?

I tried this in Mexico City with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

Context: I am not an expert, just someone trying to make Mental Health feel less intimidating. I wrote down what worked, what felt awkward, and what I would do differently next time.

My current rule is simple: if it takes less than 8 minutes to prepare, I am much more likely to keep doing it.
