HUGGGGGS. I can't live with out my T. She knows that. I tell her quiet frequently. In the 2 1/2 years I have been with my T she has asked a few times if we could end our session early. Usually she just says out right my son has a swim meet he has to be at and I have to leave by this time, or a friend passed away and I won't make the services if I don't leave by X time. There have been times when she has poked her head out the door and said I need to stay here with this person, not sure how long it will take. It may run over into your appointment. I have been in that same spot though. Some of my sessions have last an hour and a half or more.

Just last week I came unglued and told the T that my H was trying to convince me that I didn't need her, that my issues were small compered to others, and that she was going to get tired of seeing me. Baseline, I cried and cried and cried as I told her these things. And she told me "NO WAY". Much like your T will tell you. I think our T's are here to help us and they genuinely care. My t told me she will be here as long as I need her, no ones issues are petty, mine certainly are not, even if someone has issues that are not huge, if it is an issues for them then it matters to her. My T told me she is not going to leave me, if we don't take the whole session then that is fine, in fact that is good because it is taking less then an hour to get me back on the right track. That gives her a chance to get to know me outside of my issues. So I would not fret. I think it helps the T know that they are doing a good job and that they mean something to you, just like we need to know we mean something to them. From a professional stand point they cannot tell us what we mean to them though.

Big ole hugs girl. Keep going, keep moving forward, and never give up. You are worth it.
