Our relationship ended (far from amicable) just over a year ago and I moved across country and I am feeling anxious and alone with zero support. But I can't get past her abandonment and trust issues to move on.
How do you do this?
Thanks for any assistance you give...
I'm so sorry this hurt your trust in therapists although I would feel the same way. What a strange relationship, a t in a relationship with someone who defends child abusers. It seems rather sick so I hope you give yourself credit for for getting far away from that t.

There are good trustworthy t's and really terrible one and every kind in between. My current t went through Csa himself so I feel safer with him than others. Trust your instincts when interviewing t's. I hope you find a good one.
Thanks for this!
