This was a T I saw a few times, so went a bit beyond the search, I guess. I was having really bad anxiety during my pregnancy. One of the things she wanted me to do, as homework, was make a collage with my hopes and dreams for the future. Here I am, in a state of constant panic, and she wants me to make a ****-ing collage?!? I mean, I understand art therapy can be helpful, but this felt more like an assignment they'd give to 5th graders or something.

She also kept suggesting that I get involved in some sort of organized religion. She was Jewish, I'm technically Christian, but it wasn't like she was pushing any particular philosophy on me. Just saying to go to some sort of religious service regularly. Which...I get that she wanted me to have other support, but not very helpful for my intense anxiety/panic.

I stopped going back after the third session. She was very nice, just not for me!
