I am always so ambivalent about therapy - a real push / pull which I understand is common.

Before Xmas, I was struggling financially and did enforce a 3 week break with my T. T wasn't keen for me to do this, but I did anyway. It was really hard for me and I understood why T had been reluctant for me to do it. However unless I had tried I think I would have continued to wonder how it would be, so I guess I learnt from it. It did make me feel more distant from T for a few weeks afterwards.

I think it seems totally rational and sensible considering your circumstances for you to accept a price reduction from your T. However I also know for me when my T suggested this, that pride or whatever it was, got in the way and I couldn't accept his offer.
