I'm sorry you've had a tough start. Hopefully, the deferral has helped/will help. I think it's lovely that you're going to school and hoping to eventually do art therapy!

I completely agree. I think my T now is so good because she has genuine empathy...the kind you can only get with experience. I will never forget how it felt to have extreme depression and anxiety...and never forget how good it felt when the fog lifted....
Thanks for this!
