"I'm doing good,"I said staring at her as she hummed.

"Good, Now let me start with the basic questions like scheduling, notes, and maybe our therapy choices with you. We will do a small session after we have everything together before we actually start your therapy sessions. Are you okay with that?"Nova asked and I hummed.

She went to her desk and got a binder out. She had turned on her computer and looked at me. Nova opened the binder and grabbed a couple of things before looking at both me and Mr.Creed.

"Okay let's start with some forms that we need to fill out. Are you okay with starting sessions with us and seeing how things go? You can always change social workers, locations and you do have the option to opt-out if you feel that you are not getting enough help you need."She said holding out some paperwork.

"That's fine."

"Do you have any questions?"She asked and I shook my head.

"Okay, I would need your guardian and you to both sign to consent for us to give you your sessions and therapy,"Nova said and I signed the forms.

This was not hard at all. I should've never felt nervous about this. I looked at her as she smiled at me before taking the paperwork. She then puts out some more forms for consent and sessions. All I did with Mr.Creed was sign.

"That's all. Now I want to create a schedule for the week. I was thinking of doing one-on-one sessions for one hour a day. If you would like more, that's your choice, but for now, we are taking things slow."I nodded and signed more forms.

"Now I want to get into some details. It might be a bit harsh but hopefully, we can work our way through."She said and I nodded.

"Here is a form, I want you to look over and go over it. Choose the numbers between one and five. Do it with the best of your abilities."She stated as she handed me forms on a clipboard.

"I would like you to fill out some information regarding Miss Sally. Once done. Would it be okay if I talk to Sally on her own?"She asked and I froze.

I look at Mr.Creed and he looks back at me. He just stared at me for a moment then patted my head. Mr.Creed just smiled at me. It seemed like he was assuring me even though I was worried something could go wrong in there. I trust him. He's here so I am safe. Can't believe he's a trusting adult I trust.

"That would be okay. I'll be standing outside if that is okay."Mr.Creed said and she hummed.

"That's fine."

I look at the forms. It was just a depression screening (PHQ-9). I scheme through the other pages like eating disorder screen test (SCOFF), mental health screen testing (MHST), Suicide-Screening Questions (ASQ), and many more. Maybe around seven pages total.

I answered with the best I could. Even with some of them feeling uncomfortable to answer. Like most days I just don't like eating but I do not want to say that or that I harm myself when I feel that I am not worth it. I'm not sure why this assessment has the character so small. There is so much it's asking. Around more than eighty questions.

"Would you like a cup of water? It does take some time to finish the forms."I heard and looked up as she was smiling.

"No thank you,"I said and looked back down on the form.

As she waited. I answered the forms. Thoughts that you would be better off dead or hurting yourself in some way? That's almost the same question as before. I sighed and just answered two. Why not? I hate most of these questions and answer randomly to get over it. It really is bothering my head.
