That is what I realized I had to at least try in therapy this time. Things had always been a certain way for me. I knew that I didn't want it to always be that way, and I had to try something different. I was willing to attempt a partnership with my T and try to figure out something new. This partnership feeling may be missing in some therapy relationships, or maybe the person involved may not be in a place where they are desperate enough to try something new or different.
