I'm simply amazed by the texting.....although I don't have T's number aside from business number, which is usually answered by a machine (private practice, and she has no secretary, works for herself). I all I can do is leave a message on the machine (I've never called the number), or Email her. I have Emailed, but mostly about scheduling. Other Emails consisted of information Emails prior to even seeing her for the first time. I didn't want to waste time dwelling on "the past" too much....and figured I'd share that with her in an Email, so she was up to speed, but also because I really had hoped to concentrate on the current issue at hand. There was much to say. And I do find her "going back there" anyway. But I trust that she knows what's important to work through, and in what order. I have faith in her. We've barely begun to scratch the surface. We're still in the "getting to know you" stage.

I will admit, knowing that this summer may have its difficult moments, I wish I had the means of reaching her aside from Email or business phone. I feel she will prove helpful in the long run, but there may be times where I'm feeling in crisis at a given moment, and would love to be able to talk "in the heat of the moment." I forget so much when I'm in there. 50 minutes a week. I try hard to concentrate on her questions, and talk about what's relevant. But my mind sometimes just goes blank. Or I'll talk about something, then completely lose thought as to where I was going with that. I think it's nerves yet. ~Liz
