I always worry that I'm wasting her time and that she has other people to see or that there are people who need her more than I do and I'm just taking up time. I'm in there to work on issues and here we sit, talking about what book she's reading, you know?

I wonder if they ever get frustrated with us. Do you think a T would stop seeing you because you just couldn't talk about things?
You're not wasting her time. When I read your post I worried about whether you feel like she's wasting your time. I don't think that's what you're saying, but just in case that is what's going on, I do think there are some therapists out there who don't know how to get into the deeper issues very well, unfortunately. As long as you don't feel like you want her to push you, I think it's fine to take as much time as you need to get comfortable.
