I guess that is how it works. Yes?

I've definitely done that. Where it's like, "That was a good session, figured out a lot of stuff..." Then, a bit later, maybe even on the car ride home, it's like, "Oh, God..." regarding the the stuff that we figured out. And then it's hard because it's like you want help dealing with it right then, or at least to talk about it with them. But you won't see them again for a week... Which is why I often end up e-mailing. And posting on here, too.

I also feel like my sessions with T often end up being at least in part about what we'd discussed with my marriage counselor the day or two before. (Though I know most people aren't in the circumstance where they're essentially seeing two T's, since MC deals with a lot of my individual stuff in joint sessions, since it does ultimately affect H and I's marriage.)
