I go to a community mental health center, and they recently implemented a survey or rating scale that you're asked to do at the end of each session. I do it for my kids' home therapy, but today was the first day my T asked me to do it.
You just check on a line things like
How you are doing individually
How are you doing with personal relationships ie family
How are you doing with work,school, etc
And overall
Then on the other side it's to rate your session
If you feel heard, respected, etc
If you talked about what you wanted to
How you feel about the T's method and approach
Today was a HARD session, I barely talked because I closed off so I wouldn't spend it crying. I marked lower on the heard and respected, which I totally feel like my T respects me, but I don't know if he was truly getting how I felt today. But that's my fault.
He asked me to explain to him about it, and I said I couldn't talk about it today because I'm so out of it.
I don't know. I really don't like it, and probably should have answered differently. Perhaps I should have marked lower on the other ones, but it's only 50 minutes. There's only so much time to talk about 2 HUGE things that I'm dealing with, and when I close off, it's my fault not his.
At least he did say at the end that I should be seeing him weekly right now instead of every other week, which was good.
Just had to rant. Thanks!
