My T is humanistic and psychodynamic. We do talk about the past and how it affects the present. It helps me a lot to know where my fears/unhealthy patterns/etc came from....

I did find my T on psychology today. I eliminated almost everyone on there based on their orientation (I knew I didn't want CBT), or something they said in their profile, or even their picture...then I called a couple. I called my T quite a few times...for help in looking for a T! LOL He was so easy for me to talk to, so I kept calling him for help. In my last call to him he said, "Pay attention, you'll know the right thing to do". Something about him believing that the answer was inside of ME made me feel like he was the one to help me heal. It was like he already believed in me.

Can you make some phone calls? I was easily able to eliminate a couple of T's just from our interaction on the phone, and then that also led me to my T.

Good luck, Rainbow!
