all of my other therapy sessions...All of those
other therapists did not believe in the ways that I do.
Have you tried searching for a therapist within your
own personal spirituality, or faith?

I was once religious when I was younger. I did not go to church on Sunday, and I was not compelled to, but we did have to pray. When I had gone through what I did that resulted from PTSD, I found myself praying more and more, in an attempt to make it those bad events stop. It didn't. It actually gotten worse as time progress, and when I saw how vain of an attempt it all was, I started to resent religion altogether. I am now an atheist, partially from the things that I endured, and partially from the fact that it now suits my personality.
