Once a week did not work for me when extremely suicidal. My original T was out of pocket and I could not afford more time but found a T under insurance and I always did better when seen twice a week. I have to give credit that I am alive because of that extra weekly session.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
