Im in a much better place emotionally than i was 3-7mos ago. At that time I only seen her once a week. In the past month I attended another trauma intensive and am feeling better. I still have a lot of work to do and it will be hard work but i dont feel in crisis anymore. When I was in crisis mode i dont think 2 sessions would have been beneficial because the session took so much energy out of me and i had a really hard time talking to her. there was also a lot of attachment issues there.

I can actually talk in sessions now and am secure in our relationship. The sessions feel productive now. im just wondering if its normal to ask for 2 a week sessions when you arent in crisis per say?
If I could afford it, I'd be going twice a week as per the suggestion of my T. I only go twice a week if I can afford it or if I'm having a really hard time. I think twice a week is better because you spend less time on formalities and get more work done, and the relationship is stronger because you're together more.
