Glad you had the chance to let out what is bothering you. I know when I can do that, it doesn't seem so scary and I am able to better think of ways to deal with things.

I know that change can be difficult at times. But I also know that you didn't do anything to deserve the difficult times either. Life is like that sometimes and it doesn't pick and choose whose life to throw into an uproar.

Hopefully all your records are sent to the new therapist and she will have had a chance to look at them before your first meeting. You can always ask her at the beginning of your session (if she doesn't tell you herself) what she is looking for during that time. Maybe she'll use the time as more of a "meet & greet" kind of getting to know you time. You can also write down some of the important highlights you want her to know and hand her the paper when you arrive, or you can read from it to her.

I'm sure things will go fine for you I know some folks have had difficult times with women therapists, but the one I've had in the past was the most wonderful and caring woman. She taught me a lot about who I want to be. She listened well and gave wonderful feedback. I hope you have the same kind of T!
