first time therapy question:

I’m signing forms now as a first time therapy-goer and it says that my therapist would *have* to make a diagnosis for insurance purposes. Does this mean they have to find something to say I have? Do they tell you and is it something that sticks with you?

I really just want to go to have a third party to talk to and gain more insight on myself. Just wanted to hear any opinions before signing. Thanks in advance 🙏

I have been with my current company for about 3 years now and currently at 75k plus employer paid benefits and decent pension plan. Due for review next month and expecting to be offered a 5k raise. However with 6 years of relevant experience I would like to be close to 85k. We hireda new team member for the same role as me as the business is growing. They came in at 75k which bothered me a little because I pretty much began this department and put in a lot of processes. More in comments.
