Hi (((((((((sherizel)))))))))

What is it that you feel she's not getting?

It took a long time for me to feel comfortable with my therapist...and a REALLY LONG time before we were able to get into the details of "my story". In the middle of telling my story (like 18 months into therapy) I started wondering if he even had the experience to help me...so I just asked him. How many people have you worked with who have been through these kinds of experiences, who have my issues, etc? And he was able to give me an answer that was reassuring enough for me to keep moving forward.

If you're uncomfortable, it is absolutely your right to decide to see another therapist. I just wonder what would happen if you told her that you feel like she's not getting it? It might open a whole new line of communication between you.
