Hi (((((((((((((((((peaches)))))))))))))))))))

I've reduced sessions occasionally, both because I *had* to for financial reasons and because I just felt like I was in a place where I could get by longer between sessions without T.

The times when it's felt out of my control, and I've had to reduce due to finances, were stressful. I really wanted to see T more and I couldn't and it was hard to accept.

The times when I've just felt like I could go longer without T were a lot easier. Somehow, I was (and am) able to hang on to the fact that he's still THERE, and that our connection is the same whether I see him twice a week, or once a week, or every other week.

It's hard to have to reduce your sessions when you don't want to. I wonder if there is a middle ground - maybe see her two weeks on, one week off - so you don't always have to wait so long between sessions?? It would cost a little more than you are paying now, but not a lot ($300 every 6 weeks instead of $240 every six weeks, I think?), and maybe during the longer break that happens every once every three weeks, you'll find out that you can get by longer than you thought without seeing T.

I hope you can find a solution that works for you!
