Hi Perna,

I appreciate your reply. Yes, I have tried to communicate my thoughts and wishes to my T. He has clear thoughts on how therapy should go, and his role in it, for instance. It may be that it I am the wrong person for that situation, I'm not sure. We have also talked about the working relationship I had with my previous counselor, at least to some extent, and he knows that I miss the former counselor.

I do journal and write, and I agree that has been a helpful process. I have used various self-help books. And I also know what you say about shifting gears at times, and looking at what changes may need to occur, large and small, when things aren't going well. That can be important!

Thanks Perna. I wish you well.

Take care,
ErinBear
