Today the psychologist told me we're going to try to have that meeting mid October. I have no idea what happens after that and it's one of the many things that make me anxious.
I really hope I'll get more frequent therapy though. I'd like to go see the psychologist twice a week but I don't think that's going to happen so I'm hoping for (at least) once a week. It's really tough not seeing the psychologist more often. I often don't know how to cope between sessions and even though the sessions are really tough sometimes (like today) they still mean a lot to me. It's the only time I feel heard and like someone tries to understand me. Is that weird?

I am glad you are meeting with your Ts together...I hope it's very helpful for you.
I imagine a joint session should be quite useful in planning the best ways to move forward in your therapy!
I also hope you are able to tell your psychologist that you hope to see them at least once a week...I know it's hard for me to reconnect if I am I unable to do so (I am also in therapy partially for depression and anxiety). I don't think it's weird at all to feel that way at all, btw. I think a lot of people on this board only feel heard and understood by their Ts...I know that's how I feel. (And I see 2 as well...I know one gets it. It's hit or miss with the other one.
)
Can you talk to your Ts about coping skills that you can use? I personally have a constant level of high anxiety and haven't found very much to help (besides writing one of my Ts emails between sessions...then we talk about what I wrote when I see him).
