My session Monday was really good! (The only annoying part to me was that I misjudged the time and was about 50 minutes early and didn’t know what to do with myself. I felt quite emotional before the session and that made the time waiting move very slowly. )

We started out talking about something I’d refused to talk about last year. But after our discussion, I have new perspective on how to handle something.

We talked about my homework that i had during my therapy vacation and how that work has affected me and we ended the session with me telling her a list of things I want to work on this year.

She said I was different in the session… more confident…more solid... more focused. (and I wasn’t staring at her shoes! ) She seemed pleased with my progress. I still have more work to do in order to achieve the overall goals, but I couldn’t have gotten here without her. I don’t know how she does it, but from the day I met her, she continues to offer me hope. A year ago, I didn’t have any hope.

When I met her in that first session, there was something about her that told me that she was good at her job. It was nothing about what she said – just a strong feeling on my part. I’m so glad I trusted that feeling and kept going back.

I’m also very grateful to have found the PC community. It definitely has helped me get to this point.

I am looking forward to see where this all will take me.

Here’s to 2012 and continuing on this path to better mental and emotional health.



p.s. Aaaand…. I was her first client of the year!
