I'm glad you found someone to work with.

I'd like to just say something about the "gut" reaction. When I was interviewing Ts, there was a conflict inside because a lot wanted to go to one and maybe two wanted to go to my current T. "My" gut told me that the T I'm seeing now would be a hard *** and not good to work with. In fact, one T I interviewed over the phone said to listen to the "gut." But I'm so glad I didn't. She's been very good and I trust her expertise completely, so much so that I've ceased all reading about dissociation. It's been such a relief, and had the decision been made based on the "gut," I think it would have been a disaster with the other T.

Here's to your new T! Thanks for letting me rant.
