hey t thanks for the email today letting me know we can schedule for next saturday after all. i prefer that to thursday evening, now that we've had a couple-3 on saturday. before we talk about going deeper with the fear of intimacy thing, i want to tell you that it helped me a lot to read your disclosures/policies document you gave me yesterday. I honestly remember very little of it, however it was worded, when I first read it almost 4.5 years ago. I was frankly so nervous that day, waiting to talk to you, not knowing what was going to happen, all I remember of it was thinking "Surely I won't be here longer than 6 months" because it mentioned that depth therapy involves a commitment of time and I couldn't even imagine at the time, that going on 5 years later, we'd still be talking. But I'm so glad we are. Because I have made huge changes in myself for the better and yes like your paper says, I have found it "life changing and transformative".
