Please be gentle with me when you respond. I am in therapy for the death of my mom which caused maternal transference. I had only been in therapy before due to problem solving. I don't have depression/anxiety or any other "issues" other than relationship stuff/abandonment fears. I am fully functioning and ironically therapy seems to be my biggest issue affecting my life.

My T. suggested spacing to every 2 weeks to help with the transference plus I was in a better place. We've talked a lot about it, how I feel and today I told her that it seems "everyone" feels you should come weekly to move through it. She asked what I've found about spacing helping. I said I haven't. She said I need to remember there are a lot of variables - what brought the client into therapy, their past, their current situation, etc. She said there are times when the spacing will help. So, she suggested that I look for articles on spacing helping transference.

I can't handle everyone writing that it won't help and what a horrible idea. So, if you don't have anything supportive, please don't respond. Trying to protect myself from a post-session hangover and I'm doing well right now.
