My current (and most helpful by FAR!!) t is an LPC. the first 2 were PhD's, one of which I didn't even make it through the first session before walking out on the jerk, and the 2nd I stuck with for maybe 6 months, she was nice enough but we never had any type of connection at all I just stopped going. I've been talking to current t for almost 3 years now (the first year in person, then she moved and we've done only phone sessions for almost 2 years now. hard to believe.) Current t is amazing.
