Rainbow, i took my son once to therapy and i did not like having to share t at all. and it was all of my idea. i asked t if i could bring him (he is 21) except t only said like two or three sentences to me and the rest of the time talked to my son. he did keep everything i said confidential so that was not the issue. but i did not like sharing at all. then i just felt bad. this is my son! i did do the right thing.

hope it works out better for you. i like your idea of doing couples for an hour and then get the last thirty minutes for yourself. that sounds doable.... good luck
