I wrote to my T last night and explained why two weeks is way too long, and I wish that could see her twice a week or even just every week, but I know neither of us would be able to schedule that, and insurance would run out, so I asked if I could email her sometimes. She said no, because I don't make good use of the 90 minutes I have (I take a long time getting started, sit there in silence a lot, and shut down before the time is up). I have to learn to talk in session. But I wish it were more frequent, and that I didn't have to drive so long to get there (although I need the thinking time to process).

Therapists can be effective even with scars. My T has scars on her arms. I'm glad when it's warmer and she wears short sleeves, because it gives me hope that she has overcome it. I'd like to ask her how long ago she got past that. I do know that she doesn't do it anymore.

What do you do for your job? I'm jealous that you're starting internship already, and wish that I could start now too.

It wouldn't be the same as having therapy more often, but you can PM or email me if you like. Or there's chat. We could help each other keep things moving in between sessions.
