First time doing therapy

I had my first therapy session today. And it was a bit awkward. My therapist stared at me a lot and there was awkward silence often.

I told her this is my first time doing therapy and I don’t know how it works or what to expect. So I thought she would do more talking in the beginning. But I felt a bit weird.

It’s also weird for me to talk about things I keep inside and don’t talk about with anyone.

Anyone go to therapy ? Any advice ??
