Answers:
Go ahead and tell them what you just wrote - that you need to find out if it's a good match between the two of you before you commit to therapy. Make a list of things that may concern you, or issues you want to run by the therapist to see what he or she would say or do. It's a bit like you're interviewing the therapist to decide whether or not you want to hire him or her. They are service providers, and you are the consumer.
Be up front and honest.
