I can relate, so I happened to try online therapy and I love it. I can do phone calls or chat online or email, as long as I want, but it's expensive. I do appreciate how 50 minutes a week isn't workable for everyone, it wouldn't work for me.

I don't find somatic awareness has any more potential for exploitation than other modalities: I would explain my experience more if you were interested, but I think that you're not wanting any therapy right now, so... maybe some other posters will be able to help too.

Best,
