Starting a new job soon and currently have my therapy sessions once a week, can’t schedule them after 6pm so I plan to tell my new boss I will need 1 hour a week for this (and I will make up for it after hours) do you think that’s ok? Would I face any repercussions?

This is what I do. If people were to ask me specifically about it (they never do), I’d tell them.

If it were me I’d say recurring doctors appointment, without giving any detail. But you don’t even need to say that if you don’t want to.
