Just because the T's you have had in the past weren't good, it doesn't mean that good one's aren't out there that are capable of focusing on your C-PTSD but not ALL T's are trained in dealing with PTSD in the first place....I would look for one who specifically focuses on that....don't just assume that all T's are created equal because they AREN'T.
It took me well over 13 years to finally end up with an outstanding psychologist....then she retired...& I have been blessed because the one who replaced her is as wonderful & in someways even better. They are out there you just have to look & sometimes they aren't in the places we would expect. In California I would have NEVER thought to go to a community Mental Health group.....here they have outstanding care...at least the one that I am going to.
You have to be selective...just because you go to a T doesn't mean they are a good fit for what your needs are.....it's called interview the T before you settle on making them your permanent T.
