Welcome Ogie - I definitely know what you mean about the importance of a therapist liking you. The last time my husband was severely depressed, he wasn't "himself" and wasn't giving people much reason to like him. Our T at the time did her best but really just wasn't cut out for a case like his. We found a new T who is just wonderful and she has a unique ability to find the good in each of us, and celebrates it during each visit. We love her and she has made a humongous difference in my H's treatment.

Good luck to you,
LMo
