It's okay to miss whatever it is you're missing. Therapy is about growth and progress. If you stay stuck, your T isn't doing her job.

I'm going through a little bit of growing pains myself. Seeing my T only once every 4 weeks is so hard. I've been crying, missing her, having panic attacks. But she's still there. She's doing her job.
i agree with this... i am going thru something similar in my therapy... and i am also at 7 years with this T. pretty much the same situation, my T is pushing me to grow and thrive. i will admit ive been stuck and almost slipping backwards. thats not to say that it's been easy and does not HURT LIKE HELL sometimes. but when i step back from those needy young parts within me, and get in my adult mode- i can see why this is good and necessary at this time. i can see the progress i am making even thru the pain. i am making more friends and doing new things. and i think the pain will lessen. this is just what's going on in my therapy, im not trying to say anything about yours. just sharing my experience
