Do you think maybe your T had a good reason? Maybe she didn't get your texts? Phone or computer broken? Unexpected family emergency?

But I understand your feelings totally. T didn't come through for you. You're angy and want to take it out on her. She failed you so you want to quit or at least skip your next session. That won't hurt HER, you know. Only YOU.

I hated when my T was inconsistent with the way she answered my emails! She always answered, but usually ignored the important parts of them and that got me upset, angry, and majorly disappointed. It works much better knowing she won't answer unless it's about scheduling, or if it's my birthday, or if I'm missing a few sessions.

I think, with emailing or texting, it's best to get it straight how a T is going to handle them. Also expecting and realizing that T is human, and humans aren't perfect. I think we want our Ts to be perfect so when they show us that they aren't, we are shocked or in denial or extremely triggered.

I am sure you and T will work this out if you talk to her and don't skip your next appointment.
Thanks for this!
