I'm really glad to hear she's willing to address your childhood issues as I think that is very important to you and so it must be done! ( your old T)
Ya know, maybe she was hoping to control the anxiety a bit more before proceding into those memories etc. And I am glad you're reporting less anxiety becasue that can be hard to get under control. I know that's what my t did with me and at first ot felt as though she were minimizing the importance of that history but really she was trying to get me prepared with going there.
Good insight as well into the possibility of you avoiding the topics you wish to explore.....that is a huge possibility that you may have been doing that.....keep an eye on that.
Yay, I'm so happy you're figuring this all out!!!!! Right now you're at the top, and you are gonna go into some heavy stuff. I am here and I am supporting you!!
Yes, finding a t is soooo hard. You are wise to put this much effort into the process. I'm glad though, you have some options here and hopw between the two, you can find a balance that you wish to achieve...
It can be hard accepting a t's "way" of helping, I sometimes want one way, then another and so on. So yea, eclectic is what I like but sometimes I am still longing for more......even though I don't really know what that is...
