I have been to several therapists since I was a teenager, and I think my current therapist has been one of the best I've worked with. She does a mixture of different therapies including schema therapy which I never did and DBT which I have done. I find it helpful, but I definitely feel I need a lot more support.

I think I've seen about 6 T's since age 10. That's tough when you can't afford it. I told my therapist over a year ago that I wanted to come every other week and she actually got harsh with me (she's usually not like that). I think she did it to drive home how critical it was. I pay out of pocket but my insurance company gives me some of it back after I submit my statements. Did you ever try a university? They accept whatever amount you are able to pay. But I can see how that setup might be difficult because an intern or resident is only there for 1-2 years before they move on. It took over a year for me to trust my therapist. Good luck, I'm not doing so well right now either but I think the local weather for the last 2 weeks is driving some of it.
