I've noticed a lot lately that when I read threads on this board that ask about our T or when I think of therapy, I think of my previous T: "K".

I saw her October 2010-June 2012, mostly once a week, with a few twice weekly sessions and frequent between session contact. I lived in another state Aug 2012-May2013 and briefly had some therapy there, but nothing more than a few sessions. I did have one in-person session with K last March and one phone session last April. In summer 2013, I began seeing my current T: "S", but not as frequently. I previously met with her Aug 2007-Aug 2008 for individual and group, when I was in college and dealing with an eating disorder. S helped me tremendously, and I was attached and sad when I moved away and no longer could see her or even communicate with her (as she went on maternity leave shortly after my move).

Even in my current job as a youth mentor, though, I often think of how K conducted therapy when considering how I should be with the kids. I haven't had contact with K in nearly a year, and have worked with S in the past extensively and now, but K is still the first T that comes to mind when I read the board or think of therapy. I have to remind myself that she's not my T anymore, though I've sometimes answered threads as if she were. I'm not sure what to make of this. I'll see S in a few weeks, as money is tight right now and I can't afford to pay for a session at the moment- in fact, I'm paying her this week for a session from February. I'll bring it up with her then, but I've also got so much else to talk about in session. I just feel weird about still having this attachment to K. But heck, I still remember my ex bf's phone number and we haven't had contact in three years. Stupid attachment issues...
