Hi Imhotep,

Glad you joined PC and posted this thread. How long have you been with your T (therapist)? It's a good sign that you really like her but therapy takes some time. I've been with mine about 3 years. I love my T too and yes he has disappointed me many times over but he's also given me great insights, advice, support and comfort.

Have you told her that you are really looking for input into your situation? Some T's are more laid back in their approach toward clients and may need you to speak up and say what you need from them. When my T gave me his thoughts on something, I told him right off that I liked that about him and wanted more. I told him I didn't like a previous T who just sat there and listened. I wanted input. Try asking her for her opinion on something and see what kind of response you get. All the best and look forward to hearing more from you.
