she only told me it was hard for her caused i asked her right out if it was...i called her last night and told her i was having trouble processing a memory, and that i wanted to talk to her about it at session tomorrow but that i needed to ask her first if it was hard for her to listen to someone talk about a memory. (she had mentioned she didnt read books that even mentioned SA, and i thought hmmm) and i told her, if it is, you can tell me. she knows i need her to be honest with me, so she said yes it was one of her limitations, and she didnt know how to do it. so, it wasnt her fault. i asked. will see her today. she has been counseling for 30 years. but i just found out she doesnt see SA clients. i guess too i was a little upset, because after she told me that last night, i told her ok, i just needed to ask you that before i see you tomorrow, and she let the conversation end without asking me anything else. i know she was probably busy, but i felt like i had been hit with a ton of bricks and she didnt even notice it upset me. i feel bad for even feeling this way. on my way to see her. thanks for your comments.
