She will communicate by text about appointment times and whatnot, but I think because of privacy acts (HIPAA), she does not like to go into much detail by text. She said that if I go biweekly there is a possibility of squeezing me in if I decide I need to go back to weekly, but there's no guarantee. That's when she brought up it will be only "supportive" therapy and no "deep work."
Maybe I'm a little sensitive, but I thought all therapy should include deep work when it is necessary. Of course, it's naturally a little different when you aren't going on a weekly basis, but it shouldn't be that different. It just seems strange I would be deprived the type of treatment I've been receiving weekly once I go biweekly. I never really heard of a therapist saying this. It came off sounding a little rejecting, plus I pay money for this.
