Thanks for all the hugs and support everyone.
opheliasorrow, it actually really did help me to read what you said about Integrative/Humanistic therapy. Something just clicked with me thinking of that orientation as a possible solution to my problems. I actually went back to my former Ts listing on a therapist database and she lists Humanistic, as well as some others. I did recognize some things that you mentioned in my former therapy. I still need to actually talk to her and find out if our therapy sessions were geared towards any particular orientation.
I actually don't remember taking too much of a long time adjusting to that particular T. Even in the intake phone call I remember something just clicking with me...I was having a hard time talking about my problems and she just said something really simple that summed up what I felt like I needed from therapy. Maybe I just have a really romanticized view of it looking back.
Every time I have an episode of extreme anxiety or depression or whatever I was going through yesterday, the next day I feel very logical and emotionally detached, as I do now.
