Oh yeah, I'm not saying I can give you therapy over the internet, that would be unethical. I can support though, like I said support comes in many forms.

Myers, I work for social services and all the agencies work together in sharing information. I worked in halfway houses which are places that people go when nobody else will have them.

You ask me which therapies I use, I told you my preferences. I can't pinpoint one in particular because different methods work for different people. Everyone is different you know. And yes I have truly helped people otherwise I wouldn't be sharing this with you now would I.

My concern is that if I share all tricks of the trade that you will just use that to your advantage with your own therapist. (Ah, I know what my therapist is doing now, I can manipulate this...)

Coping strategies are different for each person but I've already touched on the fact that you will need a safe physical outlet. Walking, running, boxing, going to the gym etc because the anger will come out and you'll need to let that go in a safe way.

Trust comes from knowing that your therapist is actually on your side and is not going to dump you in the nearest prison.
