I have been in Therapy for a little over 3 years.

I really had no idea where to start. I was just a hot mess. I told my T I felt like it was my last chance to get myself much needed help and find some damn peace.

We talked about all kinds of things the first 4-6 sessions. Didnt make much rhyme or reason to me. My T decided what needed the attention the most. I felt a connection with him quickly so my trust in him grew easily . Him and I just "clicked"

I am goal orientated. "We" just made a game plan and have run with it since. Sometimes its a quick solution for issue/problem X , other times because things are so intermixed it takes time, hense why this is year 3.

My T does not coddle me , He just isn't the type and it would never have helped me one bit. He gives me a male point of view, he is a sounding board, he has really pushed me at times when I have needed it. Therapy is flipping tough if its not? its not being done right in my opinion.
